Fly By II

I decided to start writing today. It's not a journal, it's not a blog, it's not a story about a time... a story about a place... a story about the people... But above all things this is not a story about love.
It's just my own personal capitan's log, on the goals and failures achieved weekly, yearly, monthly, whatever.
Too many things pass by, and we forget them, we let them go without realizing that maybe those are the things that will change our future, or determine who/what we will be in it.

All of this process began last Saturday. Sick of watching "Sound of Thunder", where a group of time-travelers screw everything up by steppin' on a butterfly, changing the future into a mess of monsters and bad FX, I went to my grandpa's farm (now I realize that Jenny Jenkins -now playing on Winamp- is the perfect Soundtrack for this memoir) to have a BBQ.
By the way, we had lamb for lunch, and I hate it so deeply as I hate being invited to those types of BBQ.
So, there I was, refusing to play soccer, watching the grass grow, when I saw a butterfly. And then it hit me... what if I step on this one? will that determine the future of human race? what if we screwed it like seventy five years ago, but we still don't know?
We're so in the oven...

[END OF CHEAP PHILOSOPHY]

So, here we go with the minute. Today's highlights: I paid my building's maintenance. It just went up like 40 bucks and it hurts like hell, but apparently the plumbing on the rooftop is all rotten and if we don't fix it now it might explode or so I was told...

"This is what might happen to you if you don't pay 40 extra bucks".

Oh, and the "order" I made to get my new TV (LCD, Full HD, 32 inches) got cancelled indefinetely, so I guess I'll have to go downtown on saturday to find out where the heck can I find the make and model I wanted.

But there's always a bright side: my weird dreams are back. And last night I almost got killed by a snow avalanche, there was someone on a wheelchair, and someone who was thrown into the abyss by the landslide.
I think there were some people buried alive too... it was so much fun!!!
