Hello readers!! (hello Karen, our favorite reader!)
I have some things to write about this weekend.
First of all, since my Friday evening, I have no internet. I called broadband provider service and I heard an automatic message saying that the area where I live is having problems which is causing very low internet speed. They say it should be fixed around 12PM, today (Sunday), which I doubt.
So, when I arrived home from work, last Friday (and ALL I wanted was to get online to “be” with my husband) I got so frustrated – no internet! Of course, Cam did everything he could to sheer me up.
Anyway, my Saturday morning: the internet was working (Yay!) and, as Cam was awake until about his 3AM to watch the rugby game (Australia x South Africa), we stayed together online.
Oh! Forgot to mention: it has been raining a lot and nonstop since Friday evening (and the temperature is now about 18ºC, which is cold for Rio standards).
So, when Cam finished to wacth the game and went to bed, I left to have lunch with my twin aunties (Aurea & Elizabeth) as I always do. And, like always, they comfirmed with me that they were waiting for me to arrive at their place aroun 12:30PM. It was raining so much, but I got the bus and wnet to their place. When I arrived there, auntie Aurea opened the door and I could see she wasnt feeling well. She was having one of her usual painful migranes. She got me to sit on the couch, served me some aubergine and palm heart pastries and Coca Cola Zero. She tried to stay there talking to me, but she had to run to the bathroom to throw up every five minute.
So, I got my purse and came back home.
Later on, in the evening, auntie Aurea called to ask if I could go have lunch (like, really, have a proper lunch at their place next Saturday). But auntie Elizabeth didnt have the courtesy to apologise.
Nevermind.
I´ve got some shocking bad news; I have a distant cousin, called Magali. She has been married to Marco for 28 years and they have two hadsome 20 ´something´years sons. They have been always considered the stereotip of a perfect couple in my family. I remember, even my late mother used to remark how perfect they´ve always been. Yesterday auntie Aurea told me they are separated. He´s got a new girlfriend and decided to kick his wife out of his life. But the worse of all is that, even after 28 years married (plus the time they dated before getting married), Marco had absolutely any consideration for Magali as he was cheating on her for a while until she found out he was having an affair (she saw loving messages on his mobile). What a bastard!! What a loser!!!!
Changing the subject, this morning, I was (still I am) SO upset because of the internet that I woke up my 5AM (so anxious) and started to organize my wardrobe and shelves in my room. Cam called me and made me feel better. Like me husband always do.
Also, he had such a great idea to cheer me up: he called Ben & Karen (our favorite reader;) )
and we had a conference call. It was so much fun! Thank you my darling husband!!!!
So, this morning I went to the chemist and bought nice soaps and shower gels. Then I went to the natural foods shop and bought dried tomatoes and mozzarella croissants which I will have for lunch.
Well…. its almost 12. NO damned internet whatsoever!!!!!! God!!!! I am losing my nerves here!!!
