"Darkness Falls Across The Land
The Midnite Hour Is Close At Hand
Creatures Crawl In Search Of Blood
To Terrorize Y'awl's Neighbourhood
And Whosoever Shall Be Found
Without The Soul For Getting Down
Must Stand And Face The Hounds Of Hell
And Rot Inside A Corpse's Shell
The Foulest Stench Is In The Air
The Funk Of Forty Thousand Years
And Grizzy Ghouls From Every Tomb
Are Closing In To Seal Your Doom
And Though You Fight To Stay Alive
Your Body Starts To Shiver
For No Mere Mortal Can Resist
The Evil Of The Thriller"

Only brings exasperation

Smell the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night from overkill"

Not games"

There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud

Our house, in the middle of our ..."

Modern love - walks on by
Modern love - gets me to the church on time

So Long...

I really cannot believe it has been 4 years since I last wrote.  So much has happened, so much has changed.

Lately, I have been feeling a guttural need to write, hence I am back!  I have been having internal narratives in my head and there is so much I want/need to say.  So, I am goint to start with a little project I started on FB.  It is actually something very cool.  I made a resolution that I´d post 365 music quotes until dec 31st of this year,

These are quotes that have influenced me or played an important part in my life.  Some of them simply make my heart beat faster when I hear them.  So far it is April 9th and I am only in number 33!  Yeah... yeah... a few months behind!!!

Stuff my kids say/do...

During lunch my little one:
_ Mom, can I have some water?
_ No Honey, you need to eat a little more, I see you eating only the meat.
_ That´s because I am a carnivore and a `watervore`!

Stuff my kids say/do...

I was at the beach a few weeks ago and as if it was necessary, my middle one got lost ON THE VERY FIRST DAY!!
Ok... I guess that happens! After we found him, there was some debate on why it happened, and the conclusion was that he lost REFERENCE from where we were sitting because the close by restaurant had their unbrellas (his refeRence) closed while he was swimming.
So, grandma asks him what happened and he says:-
_ I lost preference of where you all were sitting!!!

Questioned questions...

My little one was very distracted playing with his cars and out of the blue he asked me:
_Mommy, what is time?

Being a mom, a BEING who is a mom…

Being a mom is not simple. It is like spending a life time filling up empty pages of a book. Years later, this book can turn out to be a NYTimes Bestseller or it could be unpublishable. The truth is that it is quite a load of responsibility which we, most of the time, don´t consider the consequences. I am going through a lost phase. I will be honest, I don´t hold mega-aspirations regarding my children´s future! I will be happy if the turn out to be one of those books that have a constant representation, in other words, that they turn out to be reasonable adults who take responsibility for their actions. Rumor has it that we raise children for the world; I would like to think that we raise future adults and the rest is mere consequence.

A young apprentice...

Some time ago, my oldest son woke up at 4am crying, so, as always I jumped out of bed to see what was going on and comfort him. While still sleeping, he cried:
- SCARED... scared... I am scared, very scared!
- What are you scared of, sweetie?
- Scared mommy very scared!
- What´s scaring you? Talk to mommy! – So he pointed at my direction – Are you scared of mommy? – I asked.
He put his little hands on both sides of my face and kissed my forehead.
- Scared mommy, scared...
- Sweetheart, talk to me, maybe I can help you! Tell me what is scarring you.
- The Force mom!
- The force???
- Yes!! I don´t know how to use it yet...
Almost bursting in laughter, I got a hold of myself:
- Oh, don´t worry sweetheart! You are a very powerful Jedi!
- But Mom, I´m still little!
- Yes you are, but Jedi´s are born knowing they have the force within them, when you need it you will know what to do.
The little one smiled and seemed calmer. He laid down and fell back asleep!
