meow...

4am, after a loooong day where the temperature reached the 41 degrees and humidity 90% (it was damn hot!). i was sleeping with the fan on (i don't like to sleep with the A/C)...i heard something and turned the light on...after a sec i thought "it may be a dream, go back to sleep". went back to bed and fell asleep...two minutes later i heard noises again and freaked out, it was no dream there was something in the apartment...i woke up to find two cats playing in my living room! one of them visited me once, my brother named him Beto. so it seems little Beto really liked my home cause he brought a friend to play with.
and yes, i was awake, it was no dream...it was a totally surrealistic situation but not a dream. i closed the window, turn on the fan again and went to bed.

UP...

last night i went to see my first 3D movie...and it was amazing! i remember seeing once images of people watching 3D movies, with the big glasses and moving the hands to touch the screen..."morons" i thought to myself. well, i just joined the moron's club cause i was one of them last night. starting with the trailers of the coming soon movies i realized this was going to be a great experience (btw, i'm totally waiting for Toy Story 3). i felt like a child, surrounded by a lot of other "children" amazed by the images going out of the screen: a snow flake flying in front of me, a plane coming to get me...i even covered my head thinking it was really coming my way.
reagarding the movie, as most of Pixar pictures, it is more fun for the grown ups than for the children...it touched me in so many ways! amazing movie, music, idea, everything...being the big crying baby i am, i couldn't stop myself and cried like a baby, together with the rest of the people around me...if your eyes don't get wet, at least, with UP you are a cold robot.
it was an amazing experience, if you have the chance to catch the movie, do it, you won't regret it.

psb...

i went to the Pet Shop Boys show in Tel Aviv and it was awesome! there is not much i can say about the show cause you can't explain it with words: the art work in the back, the music, the wardrobe...just amazing and tasteful.
i've been listening to the new disc for a couple of weeks to get ready to the show and even thouhg there are many songs there that i love (love etc, around the world, if u see me coming)...i can't deny that my heart just jumped when they sang Go West and It's a Sin. they also did a voer of Coldplay's Viva la vida, amazing!
at the beginning i was really close of the stage, but not really having fun, it was crowded and i couldn't really appreciate the show...but for the second part i went to the back, where you could see the stage and people were dancieng and singing...it was great!
now i have to wait for Madonna in a month and 7 days (but who is counting, ah?).

friend's day

today is Friend's Day back in Argentina...and today I need my friends so much. i mean, i have a lot of good friends here, but i miss those across the ocean, those that are still there even though the distance and time separated us...
so many things are wrong today, my ex reappearing in my life, my job, many other things i'm dealing with right now...


at least i have this clip of the guy in the new Harry Potter's movie (Freddie Stroma), dancing for me to cheer me up...

visit...

i'm slowly going crazy here. maybe because i've been single for almost 2 years and i really want not to, maybe because i hate my job and i need a vacation ASAP or maybe because Tel Aviv is one of the hottest places on Earth right now...i'm just going nuts.
regarding the being single, there is not much i can do but to keep trying. my awful job is stable enough to allow me to pay my rent and have a normal life, besides this is not the best moment to switch jobs. tel aviv being hotter than hell right now...well, i go from the office to the mall, from the mall to the gym, and then home...any place with AC is good enough. but the vacation thing is not going to happen. i was planning to surpise my mom for her b-day and going to Argentina, but she told me couple of weeks ago she wants to come in September instead of December as previously planned.
yesterday i was really tired, 32 degrees and 70% humidity at 10pm, i had a looong day cause i went out on Monday and i just needed to sleep. i decided not to go to the gym and take a nap instead. i woke up not knowing where was I, what time it was, nothing. it took me like 10min to understand what was going on. i woke up and checked my computer, my mom was on MSN and asked me to take a look at her itinerary...i red it slowly checking dates, flying companies, connections, etc. i got to the arrival date, September 29th...departure date...November 11th!!!! i didn't know how to react. i love my mom and i love having her at my place, but my sexual and love life is pretty dead as it is, having my mom for a month and a half will not help at all...i'll be hardly able to touch myself!
knowing her being sensitive to some stuff, i knew i couldn't tell her "1 month and a half is a lot!!!"...so i told her "you know i'll probably kill you before we reach the month and a half right?"...to what she shamlessly answered: "oh, c'mon, it is not a month and a half"...
well, in my little world, a month and 13 days sounds pretty much as a month and a half!
i will be like survivor, the one who reaches the end, wins.

double date...

weekend started with a roof party at a brazilian's co-worker. beers, bisli, cheese cake, cava and lambrusco. the roof was in front of the sea so it was amazing. we all escaped from work early to see the dusk from the roof.
on friday i went to Hilton Beach (Tel Aviv's gay beach)...it was so crowded! i couldn't even walk. of course it was packed with gays, all in speedos and great bodies...i felt fat.
after the beach i went to Bruno with some friends, the movie is fun, but nothing new...it's just Borat's gay version...
yesterday i met up with a girl who went to school with me, from kindergarden all the way until we finished high school. she's been living in israel for 6 years, but just moved to Tel Aviv few months ago. after that i runned to my date, the guy was nice and very sweet but the pics he had in Atraf were really old, he admited he is totally broke and sent me many text messages after our date...nothing turns me off like poor and desperate.
i got home at around 9.30, and this other guy i've been talking to invited me to meet...so, yes, tow dates in one night...i'm a whore (actually i'm not cause i didn't have sex with any of them).
second date was not good either. and i also got text messages of 2nd guy...i have to figure out the way to tell them it is no go without being a bitch.
i'd change all those stupid dates, for one interesting one.

broken hugs...

so yesterday i went with my friend D to the new Almodovar's movie (actually not that new since it was playin while i was in Madrid last April). even though i'd heard some cold reviews about the film, i was really excited to get to see it. in general, i like his movies, but i'm not crazy about them...except All About my Mother, a movie that moves me to tears each and every time i see.
we met with D at 4.45pm in Lev (in the Dizzengof Center). in this movie theather you can always see less commercial and more "intelectual" movies. the movie was at 5 and we expected the place to be empty since it is summer here and it was terribly hot. obviuosly i'd underestimated Almodovar, cause the place was packed...really, it was hard to walk. in assistance some Israeli "stars" like Eytan Fox and his husband Gal Uchovsky (creators of many of the most famous Israeli gay themed movies including "Yossi and Jagger", "Walk on water" and "The Bubble"). suddenly someone shouts Gal's name...it was Rita! (THE israeli gay icon)...even me, not an israeli got totally shocked by that show...and in a place crowded by gays.
back to the movie, i really liked it. i got everything i expected from the Almodocar experience: the text, the picture, the music, the colour red in every frame of the film. it was supposed to be a drama, as all his movies, but there were some funny dialogs in this movie...in one of the final scenes it was so funny I started crying.
i totally recommend the film.

the zebra...

it's been a week and i'm still a zebra. i'm not talking about the Chinese horoscope or about a previous life...no. since my last time at the beach last week i'm all taned, but when i take off my shirt you can see white stripes on my chest and arms. i don't know if the sun is crazy because of the environmental problems, if the sun screen i bought is bad quality or if i'm just and idiot who doesn't know how to put on some cream...i'm a freak of nature!

so today, after i left yoga class i went for a watermelon shake and a salmon sandwich, i took my bike and rode all the way to Tel Aviv's beach (obviously not Tel Aviv's gay beach, since I'm looking like a monster right now). i applied the sun screen thoroughly and wasted there like two hours...off course i have stripes...

at least i saw a gorgeous American guy...have i ever told u i love American boys? specially if they have blue eyes.

summer song...

a lot of things have been going on lately but i haven't found the time and will to sit down and post. so until i feel like posting i want to share with you a great summer tune, you can hear it in every radio in Tel Aviv and at my place all day long, Kelly Rowland "When loves takes over"
