What if I can still run? On the streets, near the sea, up and down the hills for like more than 5 minutes? It's a very very long while since my last run and several parts of my right leg were repeatedly injured during this time (heel, knee - twice, upper joint), but maybe I can still run.

Maybe it's time for that Nike+ FuelBand thing.

"go to bed before 1 am" never happens (altough is often promised to self). Except when I am sick. #tired

First was a classmate of mine, single child, she passed away at just 8 after a gas blast in her home and I was like "I don't really get this death thing". I still remember her face and her mom and how I really didn't understand the catastrophic effect of her death on her parents.

Then the near miss of another one at 13-14, still limping his leg after all this years. I started to get it by then.

At 24, my childhood neighbour and friend died hit by a train and I was upside down for months, scared when crossing the streets, terrified when crossing railroads, thinking a lot about how fast everything can end. I sometimes still meet him in my dreams and every single time I am amazed that he's back from the dead.

Then again a near miss about 5 years ago - mine this time - put me in the position of seeing it from the point of view of a parent who contemplates his death through the eyes of his child.

These days, another colleague and friend passed away - I've been told via the dry words of an email. And somehow it came easily to me to accept it, together with some kind of guilt that I don't get more consumed by it, as it happened before. Probably after a certain age sudden death seems more likely thus easier to swallow. But still, it's just another reminder that my time here is limited and I am still trying to find who I am.

RIP, hope you had enough happiness before leaving.

I wish I had enough money to start a small restaurant with a tiny brewery in the back - I'd call it "Work" and I'd brew 4-5 flavours of a beer called "Responsibly". One type of glasses would be called "Moderation".

I wish I had...

Nothing compares with the fresh smell of backyard bonfire in the morning. On strong winds and Violent Femmes tunes.

Welcome to the future

There is a whole bunch of narrow minded idiots who transfered the holy war of windows vs os x vs linux to ios vs android (since windows phone is the new linux it doesn't really matter). In meanwhile, nobody notices there's no pc vs mobile war therefore we go forward without stupidos even noticing it.

Welcome to the post pc era, no matter what smartphone you have.

So, what happens if you miss all the news of the world, the pulse of the social networks, all updates of all kind and on top of that your main connection to the world is a 3 years old and awfully slow iPhone 3gs getting data via a GPRS connection?

No-thing. Nada. (interestingly enough, most languages have negation words starting with an N).

A consistent majority of the 89798 digital pictures of mine is with or related to my kids. That would be rather sad unless we take into account the thing that I forget. Forgeting small things, big things, due dates for invoices, double pay stuff, what happened yesterday or 20 years ago, it really is non selective.
