I can't believe I finally have the chance of writing on this journal again. I've got so many things to say and so little time it's not even funny. Anyway, today I've decided to take a 10-minute break and try to update my old little (and too-long forsaken) LJ page. So, yay!
I must say I've had an eventful couple of weeks, both workwise and on the friends' side. Wish more of my days were like that, as everything was nice and positive and made me feel happy, something I haven't had in a long time.
At the end of September, my German friend
hmpf came to visit me after a Radiohead concert she'd been to here in Italy. Unfortunately, we only had a few hours to spend together, but they were nice and fannish to the maximum power, so I had a great time with her! Thanks to Hmpf, I'm now working my way through the Radiohead discography, which my daughter is starting to like as well. I guess she has good taste for a nine-year-old girl. :)
At the beginning of October, instead, I took the opportunity to go with my new friends
nausicaa83 and
tsuki_yagami to an encore screening of Danny Boyle's "Frankenstein" that was only shown for one day in Milan. In spite of the general transportation strike that hit the city on that day, everything went well and we had a wonderful time together. This version saw Benedict as the Creature, and he was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Actually, the whole film was totally worth the long day and the journey, and Nausicaa and Tsuki Yagami were the perfect fangirls to hang out with. I'm so glad I got to meet them in RL and hope to see them again very soon, because we 'clicked' from the first moment and it was as if we had known each other for a long time already.
A message to TPTB: Can I have some more days like these soon, please? When the stress levels are going up to a dangerous level like these days, there's no better therapy than a friend to make me feel human again. :)
