In Which I like Birthdays and Dislike Late Afternoons

I want to wish you a good morning, dear friend, reader of the present post. There has been a difficult set of days. Immense anxiety, and agony that is quite hard to explain. Self doubt has been a constant. I wrote the apology here, and just opened up my heart over the woes of the mind and what was lost in translation, towards Adam, and the fact it was a good thing, I think, it also caused in me immense anguish. I want to say that he is an immense and extraordinary human no matter if I never get closure on my end or not. Sadness is no excuse to ever naysay anyone. But sadness there is. That wall of deep fog, the one that is a wall, a blank curtain that allows for no continuation. That is how I feel. And the desperation of the void. Perhaps one could tell as depression, I do not desire to use the clinical language here. Just quiet desperation. And lonely melancholia.  That said, today I am, for some hours, okay. It has been hard to keep heads up. Most times, my main hobby does not pr...

In Which I say Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, dear reader of this post, and good afternoon! How are you today, on this wonderful season that now reaches its peak? How was your day yesterday? Did you eat much, like I did? I mean, it were some slices of cake, and a lovely lunch, so probably not that much, but maybe a healthy amount... Did you get anything interesting? Let me know! My friend Nik gifted me Humankind, a game I cannot wait to try it out when it is released on April 22nd of next year (hopefully it won't receive any delay). I also got the earbuds I talked about! I made some Christmas cards also, that I shared with you guys already! And I managed to sénd some time with grandma and family, so it was a perfect Christmas, even if, unfortunately, Grandpa is not around. I have a lovely painting to share with you guys, one that I found on my researches this morning, talking about the history of ice skating in Russia! We should jump to it!


This, I believe, is a scene of recent days, according to the clothes people are using, still is a lovely piece, reminds me of the art of Anno 1800! I remember going to ice skating on the mall when I was a kid! Since I am in the tropics, it wasn't in a natural enviroment, of course, but still was quite magical! I miss ice skating, really, though those skating boots are super uncomfortable! I wish I could roller skate as well, reminds me of the disco days, but I don't know if I want to go out of my way for some nostalgic trip... I've been called a grandpa for keeping a blog, apparently this is so out of fashion now, on a time where people don't like to read much (Okay, I will admit, I used to read more books than I am at the moment, BUT, one thing that I learnt is that even with audiobooks and stuff, the real important thing is just to get some knowledge). I mean, witht he grandparents that I have, I will take that as a compliment! I envy my grandma, she even got some art this Christmas, gifted from her sister, my aunt! Such a lovely piece! I want to rest a bit further today, so this post will just be a small Merry Christmas and let's have a quick chit chat one. I appreciate you so much for being here, reading my words! I hope to see you real soon, maybe even tomorrow, even if I'm not settled on writing this Saturday. One thing is for sure, this month has been a better month than November, for my life and for my blog! So yea, cheers to that!
