beautiful sunday afternoon! i know this week is going to be ‘hell’ at work and that for the next month until i finally get my ‘well deserved’ 2 weeks holiday in Thailand, life is going to be upside down with work and traveling and most probably a lot of emotional crisis taking place in the house… i can just see it coming!
so… nothing better than a magazine, a blanket, some juice, fruit and plenty of sweets and a friend in St. James Park!
it was truly relaxing… it did also remind me of a movie called ‘Scenes of a Sexual Nature’, although we were only checking out (as you do!) everyone around us and making all types of assumptions based on our extended experience on checking out people!
after three ours of stuffing ourselves with sweets and chocolates, a delicious Magnum white, and when the people around us had all been ‘labeled’ we decided to go to the coffee shop (as good portuguese we always start and end an event with coffee!).
as i seat down i had one of those moments (those that guys have every Friday and Saturday night when they had over 3 pints of beer) and just saw THE BOY!
no, he didn’t look like Olivier Martinez or Adrien Grenier (although if anyone knows which parks they usually go to i would really love to know) but there was just something about him that made me want to look at him… of course with my good luck, he wasn’t on his own, or with his dog (which would have been the perfect situation) he was with… his parents!
so, i feel 14 again and sneaking looks at a boy as i did when i went on holiday with my parents (of course they could see!!!) how embarrassing!!!
worst was the moment when he picked up a paper napkin and i promise, that for a few seconds, i actually had the hope that he was going to send me a note!
of course he wasn’t… he was blowing his nose!!!
so, i guess i have regressed in maturity and that i may have to be more selective with the movies i see as i think that romantic comedies maybe brainwashing me!
