Back home, with a project


The true is that I'm getting a little bored of doing nothing everyday. I still don't have a work permit, so it's not like I can look for a real job. I've been thinking of an idea for a while and, after meeting with a book publisher while in Brazil, it's official: I'm writing a book.

Still, it's not the crazy stressed office life I was used to, but it feels wonderful to do something else besides drive around, cook and wait for Scott to get home. I can't really be that person. I'll still be driving around a lot (I'll explain the book soon) and staying home a lot (to research and to write) but it just feels different.

It will be a guidebook on the curious places of San Francisco. This "curious places" guidebook collection has been around for a while and they still didn't have SF. A perfect match. I'm excited about the project and full of ideas.

Wear yellow, live strong.


After saying it's just an ugly yellow wristband, I got a little deeper in learning what it means. When you buy one of these yellow wristbands, you help the Lance Armstrong Foundation, that works to give information and support to people who fight cancer. I haven't been there myself, but it happened to two of my dearest people in the world. One survived, the other didn't. This kind of experience makes you want to be there to help anyone who's going trough something like this.So, just for this once, I'm not going to give the cause up just to be stubborn.

(And, if you want to know, when you mean it instead of just wearing as a fashion accesory, it doesn't look ugly at all.)

I'm back to California, by the way.

I was flying when the Sleelers played the Patriots for the AFC championship. So, when we stopped in Miami to change planes, I asked the first person I could find (the customs guy) "Do you know how the Steelers game ended?" He answered "You mean, the Patriots game, right?" And he started laughing at me. I'm glad I'm not a football freak, or I would probably feel offended.

Is home where your friends are?


A, as in kAts. Igor's new tatoo could have been about me, but not everything is, unfortunately ;)
I'm in São Paulo for a little more, before going back to California.

Where's home?
Is it where your friends are?
