Thats nice. One of the intrstng things to come from blogging is being got in touch with by a brasilian kabbalist*. Glad the french helps in the selection of words. After considerate portugese friends from a rather baffling, scruffy childhood, think it's about time i studied portugese. thinking of maria who tried hard to teach me to whistle but never returned to give me the promised elephant hair bangle. and mafalda, none of whose femininity rubbed off on me. hey a spider just walked across my screen. lovely.

* a shaming typo turned this something else before. {curtsies din for pointing out}
