Ep. 1 - Funny Guy

Today I had my hair cut! Today I had my new dining table delivered! Today I had a radio interview because I do funny cartoon voices for a living! Today I had a close encounter!

I left Praça and moved to Graça which has been quite funny so far! A new apartment, a new perspective in life. Changes are good especially when you really want them. Funny how the things you want to change the most are those that usually never do! For example: I had my hair cut because I needed a change, but after my haircut despite lighter in my head, I felt the same. I had my new dining table delivered but as I still don’t have chairs, very little changed. I was interviewed on the radio and it was funny, but my close encounter just after that, showed me nothing had changed!

Suddenly, as if time stopped and everyone around us was in suspended animation, the doors were open and there he was, in front of me. Many years had passed since we’d seen each-other. My heart accelerated, my hormones raging, my toffee melting inside my mouth. He smiled… I smiled… I started talking… (funny, I distinctly remember telling myself to shut up but I just couldn’t). Surely I had to tell a couple of my usual jokes, to remind him how funny it used to be.

Like a sand watch our moment wasn’t meant to last. Before saying goodbye he smiled and said: «Funny, you’re exactly the same. Call me and we’ll have lunch!» I just smiled and felt the pieces of my heart crash inside my chest as the doors were closing. Once again we were apart, like we were, a few moments ago.

How do we know it’s true? When people tell you «let’s have lunch», how do we know they mean it? Funny, how it ain’t so funny!

    I’m out of sync on this one…

    Most people get a glimpse of a “gorgeous” guy, not knowing if he fancies you…

    Some daring people get to read the other’s eyes (and soul)… but still… the doubt remains… (after all the desire isn’t daring enough)

    But got a home run! You got to talk to him!
    He wants to have lunch with you…
    But do you? I guess you’re the one with second doubts…

    “You don’t have the luxury of time
    You have got to say what’s on your mind
    Your head lost in the stars
    You’ll never go far (No time to lose)
    It’s time for you to read the signs”

    Dear enGine, just last night I was talking to a friend on how I don’t think Madonna is really about the lyrics but about the whole show! On how people aren’t really waiting to listen to her next poem but to see her next «trick». Guess I was wrong ehehe…

    Thank you for your comments, I have a lot of fun reading them and have my next episode almost finished! hope you like it…

    Until then… have funny days!

    Oh yeah, I’m so proud of you, my dear SerCalvin, for being back with a bang! I bet everyone was on the lookout for your next “trick”, I mean, Season! hehehe! :)

    Now, You just need to get yourself a gravatar (www.gravatar.com) so your comments look beauuutifullll (I’ve been listening too much to the Cabaret soundtrack)!

    About this episode all I have to say is: Didn’t he notice you have a lot more hair???? (LOL) I would be insulted!

    Luv u heaps ;)
