Vacation Trousers 2019

These will be more than likely, converted onto Bermudas by the GF in the nearest future.
Got'em on a surplus store.

And a little comparison, two new ones, stiff as leather (on the left and center) and one year old one (got those during last year vacations).
Love jean to be as blue, stiff and durable as they can be; as I simply love to wear those MF to the ground myself.

The Balconic Wasteland Is No More

Amazing recovery for my little mandarina tree...
From this to this and later this...
Once again, like I said, this -and asados- might be the only good thing about summer.
All the fucking heat and humid has a nice and green sub-product.

(A Little More) Green Balcony

The mandarina plant is recovering.
Slowly but steady the little fucker is getting back to life, getting greener everyday.
As a side note, take a look at those god damn spikes! Some of those are 3 cms long.

Star Wars During The Weekend

Past Sunday was the last I was alone, the GF finished her vacations on Tuesday, so took the chance to watch the last Star Wars movie.

Star Wars The Last Jedi:
Damn it, man, it was bad, but bad, bad, not just bad.
The only thing that somehow (and really sort of) saves this sinking ship is Mark Hamill, but nevertheless, it sucks.

Since Disney's acquisition, it seems that Star Wars movies are going in two directions, one way following the main story, moving it forward, like this movie.
IMHO, this is the worst.
The other direction is opening (or widen) prior stories, this, at least so, far, had better results.

(Little) Green Balcony

Slowly, really slowly, my mandarina plant is recovering, or so it looks like.
Those green buds are minimal, it was a bitch to take the picture.

176K and counting!

And another thousand up... Now that vacations are over things are back to normal when it comes to music listening around here.
Incidentally, there seems to be a problem with the Last.fm Scrobbler extension on Chrome, because is scrobbling all the ads that Spotify is playing as if they were regular music.

Movies During (and After) The Holidays

While waiting for the GF to return I have been watching a couple of movies, mostly to fight boredom and combat the MF heat around here.

Altered Carbon:
Actually this one started on Miami, binge watching it with the GF on a lazy afternoon, we watched the first five episodes or so... I've seeing the first one before, but I was really tired, so slept most of it.
It is really good (with amazing influences everywhere), but, IMHO, it tends to get a little boring towards the end of it.

The Florida Project:
Nice cinematography, well, I love it; but if you see the pictures I took over the years on Miami and Florida, you might know why right away.

Thank You For Your Service:
Naah, nothingness... A big bore.

My Friend Dahmer:
Nope, not mine.
Boring.

Buck Rogers In The 25th Century:
Damn!! I must have seeing this more than 30 years ago or something like that... Time proved it to be bizarre, really, really bizarre.
The title scene is out of this world.

The Balconic Wasteland

And this is how I found my plants on the balcony when I got home.
Poor little fellas... The brutal Buenos Aires summer has taken its toll on some of them, specially my mandarina plant, but it has been thru hell in the past, so I'm pretty confidant I'll get it well once again.
Incidentally, making this post found out that the mandarina plant is now over eight years old... Fuck in the hell, man! That's a lot of time!

Vacations are over.
WTF.
At least, the GF has a couple of weeks more to go.

175K and counting!

Been a while since the last thousand jump up, but I hardly listened to any music during my vacations.

Vacation Hardware 2018 (2)

Never pass an opportunity to get a nice quality wired mouse, the same goes for the storage devices.
This particular device has 4 TB, but, thanks to Moore's Law, the price has reduced to half.
