Buckskinhorse For Sale

close for holidays


Finally, and I mean deeply. In twenty years, is the first time I do a beach holiday, those who know of shells under your feet and the coconut tanning. For two decades, with the fact that until you can travel, we must take advantage , the holiday was inevitably a journey. Perhaps more exhausting than going to work, and sometimes almost a duty to fulfill before you have children , as if this precluded the possibility of moving beyond a radius of fifty kilometers. There's actually people who go to Nepal with a pouch on his shoulder and child in it, but I'm not so cute (or so reckless as we put it), therefore - to my limited ability to pay - any place I've shot themselves in the most heart first, referring to after any form of relaxation. And do not deny that sometimes it was almost a frustration, but this is a manifestation of deficiency on which the entire staff would prefer not to open chapter. That said, and presenting the sine qua non to feel entitled to a real vacation, I decided booking a week in the 'island of Grado, pleasant resort on the Adriatic coast known for its sand and for being one of the most abhorred by the people of Fun, so you do not see a skull between 15 and 30 years in a matter of miles. There are no nightclubs or amusement arcades, and before midnight the streets are already deserted, because it is basically a quiet vacation spot colonized by Austrian families, grandparents and grandchildren. Here, I go there. And if a few years ago I would have told myself that I was struck on the road to Damascus, are now excited to go, so that if I were to offer a holiday in Marbella, I would say no thanks. In the morning leave the beach with a load of buckets and spades for Antonio, newly arrived inflate his raft and even if you normally do not put sunscreen, I'll bring the mythical "Coppertone" to recreate the atmosphere. In the evening, after lying on the beach until late, go out with the scent of after-sun as the concern and I'm going to take the old Campari shaken the trendy bars of the Adriatic Riviera are ashamed even to put on the list.
So I greet you already, because by tomorrow I should pay my debts with the work, which for the first time in my life I feel fully empowered to send in a casino.

Predatory Birds Texas

Investments


take advantage of an email from my brother just arrived:
"Hello, tonight we take a gift for Cicciofofo that goes Saturday. You join us?" We thought one or two serving trays "
Obviously the answer was negative, but deserves a chance to say a few words for this annoying habit that so-called "wedding invitations".
So you do not know the guy who gets married, most likely is the son of your friends and you do not see since he was five years. So you can not fool one stone him to marry him and even less to let you know. But parents here are involved with their "wish list", ie the nerds who see note announcing that deliver something that leaves you mostly indifferent but for which however, you must hunt at least forty euro, the cost of a decent bunch of flowers. The message is clear now more accustomed to the situation and, above all, the most phobic towards these customs: please do not because it is an intimate ceremony just for us but we would like to let you know that we'll get married. That is, the sincere version: you're not important enough to be invited to lunch, given what it costs and we have hundreds of relatives on the rump, but you may still drop some little thing, maybe you wonder where we did the wedding list.
Well, I am contrarissima to interests, offend me terribly. Not for stinginess, is the principle that bothers me. Or invite me (and I hope not), or give me the news in a less demanding, and not just for the forty € rather that throw them for a good bottle of wine, or the fact that I have to split to go get a gift even if only a bouquet of flowers.
Most likely someone will tell me that I speak so because of envy, given that after twenty years of "engagement" (I think that in the meantime word has gone out of fashion) I have never married. So I have always done weddings and other investments. Weddings are often welcome, participation ever.

(final prediction: my mother is ashamed of me, and will deliver to the spouses of the flowers on my part)

What's The Difference Between A Cravat And A




Every time I see him again, it is with different eyes, and I always find other nuances, details that I overlooked. They have since late last night, like all good movies, and I was only casually, as you have to be at this time. In fact, I was not alone, I was not alone at all: it was there that she slept with Antonio. So was the first time I saw him together, the first time I saw a mother . I had never noticed the dedication final "A todas las mujeres que quieren ser madres," I had never lived so so heartbreaking, moving, authentic . And for the first time I thought with conviction that a man can never understand certain things. The woman has a more complex and often difficult life of the man, but it has this great privilege, the fact of being a mother. That is not how to be father is a more intense relationship, conscious and complete. I discovered in my invincible power. It does not mean having a child: a mother who just want a child so intensely, because it is still a deeper sense of what a man can conceive. A child who has not even ever wanted, is a woman in half.

All About My Mother - Part II
are three in the morning and suddenly, without distinguishing between dream and reality, I hear a knock overwhelmingly in the door. I think it probably is the father to return from the meeting for the football tournament and forgot the keys. When I make what is surely the case, hesitated a moment entertaining the idea of \u200b\u200bleaving out of the house all night, but then go down and open it. Stupid.
"Up to this hour?"
"We lost in a speech and you know." Yes, I suppose. "Oh but the stories, never returned to the three in the morning!"
"And me?? I do not even come back at eight in the evening for ten months!"
The final cut: "My fault if you abandoned your friends ?"

So I understand. I understand that just did not understand one stone. And I resign myself to him, for his kind, created with the gray matter slightly damaged. And, sure that Adam was not only removed a rib, but surely also some neuron, I think of this beautiful masterpiece of Almodovar developed the idea for a perfect life should go to a man, but to live and raise your children you should choose gay.

England Cricket Team- 1930

's over

I'm back among you, my endless weeks of shit ended yesterday. Do not tell me about Stratocaster, slide, riff, claw-hammer and frailing, hammer-ons and pull-offs for at least three months. Thanks.
