Learning to use Paint Shop with a tablet thingy...

Is it  a mouse? Is it a pen? No! It's a tablet thingy and I'm learning how to use it...
So what do I do? Corny declarations of love, of course!

In the ... bathroom

Yes. Yes.. this is me and my girlfriend eating in the bathroom.

Why? Do I hear anyone ask why?

Well.. 

Me (in the kitchen) - Honeeeeeeeey... where do you want to eat?

Her  (upstairs) - I don't care.. you choose.

Me- Really... Anywhere is fine with you?

Her - Yes... You choose!

Me - We are eating in the bathroom, love!

Her- Ok!

We are not weird... we are special! :P

We ate noodle soup, cheese flavour. Miam!

She puts a smile on my face

No she really does... even if she has to draw it with permanent marker...

Best of all... completely forgot my new "tattoo" and went shopping with it...

Happy moments

I like to think about them. Repeat them over and over in my head. Savor them.
I like telling you about my sunny days. They're the ones that matter, the ones worth remembering.
So today i'm going to tell you about the apple pie I made and how happy I was because I knew upstairs was a girl who was going to love it.
I'm going to tell you about the sleepy "good morning" I heard as soon as she opened her eyes and about the rock on my desk that has our names inside.
I'm going to tell you how good it felt her hand searching for mine as we walked down the street.
I'll write about the kiss she gave me and about the strawberries we ate in the kitchen.
I'll write about all the "come here", "don't turn away, let me hold you", "shhhhh", "it will get better soon" and " "I'm here, i'm not going anywhere".
I'll write about the cute little dance she does and how I love to see her laugh.
I'll write this for all of you who read this blog, but mostly I'm writing this for you, my love, so that you know that you're the one that makes me feel like there are happy moments to be remembered even when I feel like this.

Warning signs

At the supermarket:

Me- So... do you want green olives or blue olives?

Blue.. black. I bet they could be tasty, those blue olives...

Big difference

Ok.. so we are both portuguese me and my girlfriend and I don't really know to translate this:

"Digo-lhe eu, enquanto a abraço:
-Agarra-me com força...
- Eu não te agarro com força, agarro-te com jeito."

It was something like:

"I said to her:

Me- Hold me with all your strength ...

Her- It's not a matter of strength , it's a matter of knowing how to hold you. "

Whisper sweet nothings in my ear

There we were.. holding each other:

Her- Wait, you have something on your face, I think it's a little monkey (she says the sweetest things...)
Me- Was it Cheetah?
Her- Oh yeah.. it was sh*t-a from your nose!

Surprise Tea

Me- Looooooveee... what kind of tea do you want?
Her- Surprise-tea!

Well... it's only a surprise untill you take the first sip. So I made lot's of cups with different flavors...

... but she only liked one.
Hummppft!

Perfect Match

Me- Eww... are you eating melon with cuscus?
Her- So? You're eating cucumber with sugar...

Raspberry Kisses

They were fresh and colorful, just begging us to take them home.

Before putting them away in the fridge I gave her one. Then I ate another.Two, three shared between smiles. She kissed me, her lips sweet with tenderness and flavor.
I thought to myself that life was good that way... filled with raspberry kisses..

Dot Black Devil

 She can be so sweet..

but somehow every time I try to take her picture she looks like she is really annoyed (if I'm lucky) or like she is about to bite my head off.

To play or not to play... to sleep!

I live with a turtle, a dog and two cats.
The turtle name is Verdinha (it means little green one in Portuguese), Silly is the female dog, Dot is the female cat and this is Joca, my oldest cat.


He just can't decide if he wants to play or sleep... Sleep is the winner, of course...

Pizza!

I want it.
With cheese, olives, bacon, ham, onions and mushrooms.
Or maybe some fries with... fries.
No!
A nice bundle of KFC hot wings.
Burguer king.. ahhhh...
I'm hungry and all I can think about is junk food! Not my fault... it's these evil hormones. They make me crazy! They make me want to eat pickles dipped in cheese and hot dogs with mayonnaise...
If its salty, fattening and unhealthy... i want it!

I enjoy being a girl

Do you know the song?
It keeps playing in my head when it's that time of the month....



My computer refuses to "sing along" so I hope i got the right clip. :)
It *is* quite good being a girl, but sometimes I just have to remind me of that.

Looking for a snack

Having burned the pizza I was hungry not too long after dinner so I went looking for a snack.
There, on one of the shelves, was a can of some kind of passion fruit juice or pulp that I decided to try.
It was sweet but not too much after adding ice and it tasted pretty much like the fresh fruit would.
As I look to into the glass and at all the seeds floating happily in the yellow goo I thought to myself  "this has to be good for your health. So I checked and it really is:
