On the effect of the flu on the ability to communicate
You Communicate With Your Ears |
Another lazy day in sunny Groningen. Sunny? Yes, you heard me. However, enjoying the Dutch light is not for me!! I'm at home, enjoying another kind of light, the one you see at the end of the tunnel after you've taken enough paracetamol and Actifed to make your brain go "--.--mipmip--.--". And wandering through the internet I found this test on Correio Verde's blog, and couldn't resist to take it.
I communicate through the ears. This is mostly true, especially because right now I have no voice and no sense of smell and taste. So ears is all I've got. But it got me thinking. This is dangerous, i know. It got me thinking about what is most important to us. Lately I've been feeling words shouldn't be as important to me as they have been so far. I mean, it's nice to lose yourself in them once in a while, but I'm now feeling inclined to take people more for their deeds than for their sayings. I mean, everyone can come up with a good punchline. But not everyone can take a good punch. See? There you have it.
And this was today's moment of philosophy. Blame it on the paracetamol.

foste tu!! que troxeste o calor do texas!! isto na holanda é nunca visto!! :)
p.s. fui fazer destes testes, resolvi ver que cidade americana era eu... austin, claro!! não sei se te disse das primeiras vezes que escrevi aqui, acho que sim, é um dos sítios que quero visitar, não precisa de ser austin, basta ser texas (parte americana, também não el paso), até dallas eu gostava de visitar, embora já tenha ouvido dizer que as pessoas não são muito simpáticas lá, e que austin é mais bonito.
Pois infelizmente nao sai de Houston o tempo todo que la estive... Mal... eu sei. Mas olha! pelo menos fiquei a conhecer Houston (particularmente o meu bairro) muito bem! E agora vejo com nostalgia o Animal Cops Houston, no Animal Planet... na esperanca de ver sitios e caras familiares...
Oi! Afinal continuas a escrever neste blog... Sou sempre a última a saber do que quer que seja. Enfim, se calhar fiquei com a impressão errada de que irias voltar ao blog de origem. Esquece... Também nada disto interessa. Como vai o projecto? Tens avançado bem?

Paracetamol and Actifed? Is that harmful? Any side effects? what's the --.--mipmip--.--
Panu: the only side effect of taking paracetamol and actifed in high dosage is to write really bad posts. Ehehe. The "--.--mipmip--.--" is a joke for myself, I read this in a Terry Pratchett book (Bromeliad Trilogy) where apparently this summarizes what goes on in the mind of a certain south american frog. They can also count up to one. What can i say? Too much paracetamol + actifed. But I recomend all of Terry Pratchett's books, in any case.
