Wow! I had this weird moment today while I was waiting for the bus.
I had sat down on the stairs because I knew it would have taken long [as usual!] and suddenly my sense of hearing kinda disappeared and was replaced by something similar that made all the sounds seem distant and amplified.
Maybe it had to do with my surroundings: the sky beautifully clouded with that light/dark contrast I love so much, the sun hidden behind this huge amount of gray clouds, no signs of traffic and an almost unreal silence with just a few people walking slowly on the curb.
It lasted no more than a couple of minutes, then the sun came through the clouds again and everything was back to normal.
It's been really surreal, but in a good way, it wasn't scary or anything.
But now that I'm thinking about it... should I worry?  Nah, probably not: I think all this "surrealness" happened because of a person I didn't even talked to yet. Weird, I know! It's this Brazilian guy who's giving the leprechaun Latin-American dances lessons at home, and it sounds great!!! He's one of those happily contagious "life is always beautiful" kinda person and it has always worked with me. I'll probably have him teaching me some salsa in the next future, who knows?
Yesterday a similar thing happened: I had quite a sh***y day because my tummy was screaming, I was feeling tired as hell and my colleague's attitude was driving me nuts! Then, on my way home, I saw this cute little baby on the bus.  She truly looked like an ethereal being, she almost didn't seem human. At some point she started looking at me and she kept smiling and laughing like only little babies can do. Everyone on the bus was in complete awe! And that basically turned an awful day into a much more decent one.

P.S.: I took a picture while going to the library... I really hope it'll turn out good. If it does I'll post it later.

20.11: Yes, it turned out good enough to be posted.
It was funny because I get really embarrassed whenever I want to take a picture, but today I managed to convince myself that I shouldn't have worried about what people could have thought if they had seen me stop in the middle of the sidewalk, take my digital camera out and then snap a picture of the abandoned railway next to the road.
I see it every day when I get off the bus to go to work and I've always wanted to take a photo of it... and so I did!
