I DO like Mondays

People ask me a question: Why I post on Mondays?
And I tell 'em: Because I like Mondays.

Actually, I don't like Mondays as much as Fridays or Saturdays do, but I have to deal with them, so I like them. Mondays, as it is wrongly known, are not the worst day of the week. It's true that it's the first day of the week of working and we have to leave all weekend's fun behind. However, we have to be more positive and give a chance to that day to be wonderful as any other can be and carry on with smile on the face! If you don't, sure you'll miss a lot of good things that could eventually happen in a everyday life time. Because, when you think all can't go on right, then you have to say: Ok, I'm here, I have to deal with today, why not deal it with the very best smile?
Be yourself happy and you'll make the other to be happy too.


Do you need inspiration?
- Take your friends close to you and make your everyday life time to be like a whole new and challenging day. Life is more exciting in that mood!
- Don't like your job or work space? Put in mind anything of your job which makes you happy, or at least, make you less bored or unhappy (it does not matter how insignificant it is). Then, connect it to the next thing that makes you happy too (or less unhappy) and related to other things that could be similar, and so on. It's a chain of the not-so-interesting-things to be the-things-that-make-your-day-easier. I'm sure that now there's just a few things that you don't like about your job.


- If you are in Twitter... an inspiration is @FGrau. Francesc is one of the most positive people I've meet in this social network. So, when he starts a new week he just say: Empezando una nueva semana con fuerza e ilusión, which in English could be like 'Starting a new week with strength and hope'. That's the point, that's the attitude!

I can't conclude this post without mentioning that yesterday was the 32nd anniversary of the disastrous murdering of Brenda Ann Spencer. He killed ten people for 'fun', because he 'wanted to be on the TV', and, well, 'she didn't like Mondays'. (More info)

In any case... 

 Happy Monday to everyone!

             

Productos genuínamente falsos 2: evolution

E aquí una retaila de nuevos anuncios web de tecnología con un carácter "verdaderamente falso". Aunque no sólo son productos que muchos de nosotros ya los hemos visto sino que poco a poco van evolucionando, y yo me pregunto ¿dependiendo de qué? La respuesta no la tengo demasiada clara, al menos no empíricamente.

**************

Ahora vienen los tablets. ¿Alguien sabe qué es la 'Android Tablet PC'? Las ingenuidades de falsificación llegan a tal punto que me cuesta creer que haya gente que se dedique a eso y que vendan conejo por conejo pero con tal estupidez de usar la liebre. En la segunda imagen se puede ver, ya que se presenta una imagen del iPad de Apple, pero modificando la imagen de dentro del producto. Verdaderamente es asombroso el ser humano. 

Y yo me pregunto ¿alguien lo compra? Pues aunque parezca mentira sí hay alguien, que si bien no los compra para su propio beneficio, sí lo hace para enseñarlo al resto de nosotros. Este es el caso de Stuart Ashen.

 

¿Es que hay iPads de diferentes colores? Me parece que a veces intentan asimilar la evolución de otros gizmos que salieron del mercado e intentan equiparar su determinación en el mercado. ¿A caso no os huele a chamusquina? ¿Os acordáis de la 'GameBoy Color'? Parece que se supone que despues de la primera generación del iPad, ya hay la segunda generación y a color de la carátula a escoger.

¡Qué grandes que son las estimaciones!

Este último me hizo gracia.

"Life is short. Have an affair"

Shocked is a word that can describe my face when I saw this ad on the web.
I could not believe it. Quite unexpected and blurred way of promoting this kind of activities. However, more impressed is what I finally felt when I gave my boyfriend the chance to watch it.
Non sense for me, all the sense of the world for him. And after all, that had pretty good sense in a way.

******************

- That is non sense! - I said looking at the computer while we were sitting around the living room table.
- What do you say, Darling? - He asked me still working with his computer.
- Did you saw that? That's non sense! - I repeated while I was pointing my finger to the screen.
- What is it? - Now he stopped what he was doing and did focused at my computer.

He read what I was pointing at. A few seconds later.

- But of course! There are a lot of men who are not happy with the couple they've married. And, well, they look for somebody else to fulfil their sexual life! - He looked at me and expected that I understood his opinion. However, my face were not into that. So he carried on with much more care when pronouncing his words - Well, you know, some men wants more... - My face were still - Different things... And, and.. humm... it's a way of challenging their life... new boundaries!.

He turned back to his work. I wasn't. I looked at him wanting to say something but I remained silent thinking about what he just said. Then:

- So, what you mean is that you'll be looking for a new "company" if we were married and I wouldn't fulfil YOUR sexual life... is that it? - 
- Sweetie! - He stopped watching his screen and faced me - You fulfil my sexual life! - He smiled me trying to hug me which finally does.
- And the rest? - I was still. We remained hugged but then he went 3 inches away from me still looking at me.
- You fulfil my whole life! - He paused because I was not reaching the understanding of his words - Look, I love you. I love you since the first day we met. - He paused to think - Well, not quite the first day, because you were ill and you looked rather awful...
- Charles! - I hit him tenderly -
- Ok, ok! My point is that we are good together now. If there are couples that can't live together is their problem, and if society do made up to something to make their life easier, then they'll know what they want to do with their life. But, that is nothing to do with us.

Pause.

I understood it.

He continued - Darling, I love you. That is what's the only thing that matters now and the only thing that I care between us.

I saw he meant those words.



I must admit it, women take things too far.
