In Which we have many years in a week: Morning in Brazil, too?

Good morning, most kind and dear friend, reader of this present post, too! How are you? This is a post I have been trying to write since this Tuesday or so... and it has been quite hard to think on what to develop into a more substancial thought. There is a lot that I would like to talk, and I was terrified of starting a post, only to delete it and leave it at that, it happened time and again, and it destroys me for the moment. I don't know why such a strong repulsion against starting a thought and not knowing how to end, not finding a good way to conclude. Perhaps it is fear of fatigue. Or of being mistreated. But I do have an ongoing trend that I perceive, I really, really wanted to mention it. I did start the year a bit annoyed with the 2016 nostalgia, and on that line, I said that it was more of a 1989 year than 2016. I said it due to the capture of Maduro, the (ongoing) second Iranian Revolution and war, the immense losses the left suffered across latin America, that brought s...

Song of the week! In which we have a late night post with a suitable piece of Jazz

Hello everyone! Happy Friday to you! How was your day? How things went? Good evening! I do wish you the best and hope things went well with you! How was the weather? Here things are fresh as we are still in winter, my birthday is coming so I'm excited, I'm happy I get the chance to, who knows, maybe change my laptop for a newer version, I'm happy for the possibility of doing so. Either way, I'm excited to be here talking to you guys so late in the night, it's basically Saturday, how crazy it is the way time works! To celebrate that, I just wanted to bring some Windows XP nostagia and some late night vibes with a piece of music that is close to my heart, we go on a jazz adventure with Highway Blues by New Stories!



Well, this brings me back to my childhood years when I, bored, used to see on the computer things I could play with, those samples of songs of Windows were my first contact with Jazz, and the other sample of music, a part of the 9th Beethoven's symphony, was my first contact with erudite music as well! This song really warms my heart and brings the best of what my childhood has to offer, it's incredible how diverse Jazz is, we got so many ways in which the genre goes, and I think this is really important! I always feel I don't listen enough of it, to be honest! Windows XP does bring me the memories, I should have a post to talk about it even! You only know what you got when it's gone sometimes... 
I wish I could have worked on this post earlier today, but I wasnt with my notebook unfortunately for most of the day. Some good and bad stuff happened today, for example, I made some progress on my garden, everything is on place, though one of my cactuses is maybe dying. I discovered I suffer from severe Apnea, which means I unfortunately have gained a lot of weight over the months and should lose some, LIKE IT'S THAT EASY, God I hate this, I just love to eat guys, and I get fat, wish I wasn't, anyways, so life goes... I'm worried I maybe not get my laptop for my birthday, but I shouldn't worry about this now...
Well, so far this is what I have to offer, some diary, a nice song that maybe you will enjoy, maybe not, either way I'm so happy to have you here on the Divagation Store, thank you so much! See you next time!
