Bought a groupon earlier this year for 5 movie tickets to my fave chain of neighborhood movie theaters...then of course waited until about two weeks before it ran out before I started watching any. Now I've seen Woody Allen's "Blue Jasmine", a very cute Indian movie called "The Lunchbox", the new Coen Brothers film "Inside Llewyn Davis", and "The way way back"...

Have any of you ever floated, I mean on water with high salt content like in the Dead Sea? Here in Berlin, last year several studios opened where you can experience the sensation of floating, with (or without) psychedelic lighting and ethereal music. Some of these places, you're kind of locked into a capsule-like thing, which is a bit too claustrophobic for me. But today,...

...and I believe that's a line from a Dean Martin song. See, I totally abstained from wine these past few days, even as I was stressed out and sorely in need of a glass, or two...or three, just because I was going for a medical checkup today and didn't want to mess up the results ("Ummm, do you, by any chance, drink alcohol on a...

It's getting really hot here, and I can't say I like it. It's so humid that I'm sweating and growing gills as I'm typing this. Sexy, hey?
I miss emoticons too, but I must say that the new site is growing on me, especially blogs. It's so much easier to post now. And of course you'll stay, you silly. *insert the winking smiley face*
Whoa, I suppose this dates me terribly, but I find navigating the new site somewhat difficult, plus I think some functions don't work properly yet. Oh well...I'll just go away for a few days and hope the bugs will be fixed when I come back! Meanwhile, and just to test this new fangled blog, here's some more pics of me (it's all about me, right?)...

I like Autumn too, but now in Brazil it's Spring.
I hate to see Christmas things before December. But here always starts in October, after Oktoberfest (German party).
Have a great weekend!
