Coisas Novas

Just a news update for now since it's Monday and, well, it's Monday.

Thing 1: For Twin Cities locals, the Chambermaids are playing at the Turf Club on Friday (21+, cheap). I hope to go and check them out myself.

Thing 2: I finally got around to updating my blog links in the sidebar. I added some links that were overdue to be there; sorry it took so long if you're one of them. And if I'm not including you and I should be (you think), send me an email to the address in my blog profile and let me know.

Thing 3: I also finally updated the Mythos, which is always fun but it takes me a long time because I have to read through a bunch of old posts. Let me know if I got anything wrong. Just a quick reminder, the people who are listed in the Mythos are people I have mentioned in the body of my posts, not necessarily in the comments, so don't feel horrible if you're not there. Your day will come. And also, people that I have not yet met personally (that is, face to face) are only possibly real ("p.r."). See here for a fuller explanation.

Thing 4: My bomb-diggity friend Kat (who writes pink india ink) is in the process of writing a series of posts about an exhibitionist (that isn't her) that is well worth reading if you want a laugh or twelve. Go Kat.

Thing 5: Speaking of bomb-diggity, my wonderful pal visualsnark is helping me out on my story with the working title of "The Other Keys." It's turned into a bigger project than I anticipated, but I think it will be worth it. It has taken some time away from my blog entries, however. Sigh.

Thing 6:
I wish I was writing this in São Paolo. The weather here has sucked a lot lately, it's been cold and rainy. This has taken its toll on my and everyone else's spirits, I think. Of course I am assuming that the weather is better in São Paolo. Who am I kidding? I'd rather be writing this in Brazil anyway; who cares about the weather there. No snow, is all I ask. Hulles need beach. Thanks (and kisses) to Casti for the image.

Thing 7: Spoooooge mudflap. Dang. Didn't work that time either.

Thing 8: "Coisas Novas" is (hopefully) "new things" in Portuguese.

Hulles,

No Brasil ou em Minnesota, faço votos que seus projetos da internet tenham um proveitoso final. Quanto ao tempo, faz sol! "Coisas do Brasil".

I have no idea what Casti said. AltaVista Babel Fish says that she said:

In Brazil or Minnesota, I make votes that its projects of the InterNet have a beneficial end. How much to the time, it makes sun! "Things of Brazil".

Well, who the hell could disagree with that??

Greetings Hulles.

I seem to have been pre-occupied with other things for a while so I havn't had the opportunity to pop in and say "Hi". The adorable Eva has just jogged my memory (or - at least - what's left of it).

Good to hear your notebook is up and running again.

Like you I'm dreaming of warmer climes ; the weather in the UK has turned cold and wet again.

Brazil for you : Morocco for me I think.

Have fun,

M.

Casti, meus projetos seria muito mais divertimento se eu os fizesse em Brasil que eu penso. Bjs, Hulles.

pj, exactly, who could disagree? Faz sol!

Anne, I was hoping you were.

Merlin, Morocco sounds perfect; I've always wanted to travel there. Good to see the Cardiff Giant show up around these parts again.

And Kat is writing a "series of posts," not a "serious of posts." Grumble mumble damn word-completion thingie...

Unknown said...

it's a serious series of posts. thanks for the kind words and referrals of friends. (also: i've been gawkered again! wow!)

Hulles said...

Kat, you're certainly welcome. All my friends like you lots, or at least your writing. They don't know you like I know you.... And CONGRATULATIONS! I'll have to check it out.
