Άλλο ένα ουσιώδες ποστ

Πάντα κοιμάμαι μπρούμυτα και συνήθως έχω το ένα χέρι κάτω από το μαξιλάρι. Υπάρχουν κάποιες μέρες όμως που απλά δεν μπορείς να κοιμηθείς. Δεν σε πιάνει ύπνος με τίποτα.

και αρχίζεις να προσπαθείς όλες τις πιθανές και απίθανες στάσεις και θέσεις μέχρι να σε πάρει ο ύπνος.

Αλλά φυσικά πάλι δεν καταφέρνεις κάτι, γι' αυτό εγώ λέω πάντα στον εαυτό μου εκείνες τις ώρες: "Ποιον κοροϊδεύεις ρε Γιώτα; Αφού δεν πρόκειται να σε πάρει ο ύπνος ανάσκελα. Μόνο μπρούμυτα κοιμάσαι και μάλιστα η αρχή του ύπνου γίνεται πάντα από την αριστερή πλευρά." και έτσι λύνεται το πρόβλημα αϋπνίας.

Χθες βέβαια κάτι τέτοιο δεν συνέβη καθώς έπεσα για ύπνο στις τρεις και τελικά κοιμήθηκα στις εφτά.

Αφιέρωμα: Μπάντζο

Το μπάντζο το έχω συνδυάσει στο μυαλό μου με καουμπόηδες, με κοκκινοτρίχιδες και με yodeling. Είναι ένα όργανο που μπορεί να κάνει παρέα με τη νοσταλγία αλλά πιο συχνά είναι εκεί για να σου φτιάξει τη διάθεση.

Sarah: „What’s the matter, honey?“
Claire: „I just got rejected for my grant.“
Sarah: „Those dicks. Let me see that. Oh, well, there will be another one.“
Claire: „Shit.“
Sarah: „Maybe you’re not an artist.“
Claire: „Why would you say that?“
Sarah: „Did it hurt your feelings when I said it?“
Claire: „Yeah. “
Sarah: „Maybe I’m right. Maybe if you were an artist, you’d have laughed when I said that. Like if you told me I was purple I would laugh because I know I’m not purple. But when I said you weren’t an artist, you felt bad, maybe there’s a grain of truth in it.“
Claire: „You were the one who took me by me shoulders and looked me in my eyes and told me that I was an artist.“
Sarah: „Maybe you were. Maybe you are. Maybe you aren’t. I don’t know. … No one else can tell anyone what to do, least of all me.“

Απορία

Σήμερα μου γεννήθηκε η εξής απορία. Πώς γίνεται οι φασίστες να έχουν σαν κύριο λόγο για το μίσος στους Τούρκους το ότι μας έσφαξαν πριν κάποια χρόνια και παρ' όλα αυτά να πηγαίνουν τους Γερμανούς που έκαναν το ίδιο και πιο πρόσφατα. Αν κάποιος φασίστας διαβάζει το μπλογκ μου να μου λύσει την απορία να σταματήσει να το διαβάζει.

Έτσι κι αλλιώς την απορία μου την έλυσε ένας φίλος: Οι φασίστες είναι πανηλίθιοι.

I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth! Photographer's amazing pictures of girlfriend leading him by the hand around the globe

Some men aren't keen on letting their partners take the lead.

But not Russian photographer Murad Osmann.

While some of his peers hate the thought of just being led around the shops, he was quite happy to let his girlfriend guide him around the world.

Murad, an executive producer for the film company Hype Productions, started his journey in Barcelona in October 2011.

He has since travelled to dozens of locations from Moscow to Hong Kong and Singapore to Bali.

Popular pictures: Murad has posted his photographs on his Instagram page, which has nearly 25,000 followers

Murad said Nataly, a journalist from Moscow, was the inspiration behind his unusual collection.

He told MailOnline: 'The first photo happened in Barcelona while we were on vacation. 

'Nataly was a bit annoyed that I was always taking pictures of everything, so she grabbed my hand and tried to pull me forward. 

'That said it didn't stop me from doing photos while she was pulling me. So that's how it all started.'

Murad graduated as a civil engineer from Imperial College London, but later decided to pursue a career centred around his passion of photography and started his own production company.

He said: 'It might seem that I have a lot free time, but actually we travel mostly for three to four days abroad due to me being always busy at work.

'The photos were initially taken by iPhone and corrected in camera+ app. Now I am using any photo equipment that I will have at the time and I try to do less retouching as before.'

He has posted dozens of his photographs on his Instagram page, which has nearly 25,000 followers.

One poster summed it up by saying: 'You are winning at life.'
