long time no see....

...and I have no real excuse, apart from brain exhaustion...which seems to have become a custom nowadays. I am working  for 11 hours every day, and once I get home I start writing...and writing...and writing. More often then not 2 o'clock in the night finds me on my belly in my bed...writing! My head is full of ideas that I can't even sleep, and if I am not putting them down on paper right away, they pure and simply fly away....
But I haven't started this post to complain about my busy schedule, as I am practicing what I always dreamed about, right? or almost...
Anyway, August has gone, as probably most of you know, and the summer here in Romania is starting to fade away, and depression is starting to sink in. I will hate it when I won't be able to go to work on my motor, and that is the main reason for hating autumn. As for the rest, I really do love the full vibrant colors. What I don't like about this autumn is my birthday anniversary, which I would rather skip this year....
As for my vacation, I spent it at Raca, but didn't stay there as much as I would have liked to, but yet enough to have a great time with my sis and my nices:

...which were busting my head to take them for a ride every day....but still, never forgot about caution and wore helmets...and paraded with them....

....and in general had tons of fun. I've also seen some pretty awesome places, when we took the train from Oravita to Anina- this is the oldest railway in Romania, and the steam locomotive used to drag the wagons is no longer in use, but we could actually see it in the depo:

..it is an old lady made in Vienna...beautiful as can be...
While on the road to Anina, the view is breathtaking...

 ...and I must say it was worth it packing up to the blistering heat for the whole 4 hours of the trip just to see how beautiful my county is:

You just couldn't stop looking...and the trees in the forests...were something spectacular to look at!

We've also visited some good frieds over by the Danube, and they took us on a recognition party on a small river...but all that was left of it was:

..still the trip was worthy of admiration, as outside this forest and this ice cold creek there was extreme heat and it was just as if we had passed into another world. The green canopy over our heads made me want to lay there by the creek and spread my blanket on the grass and of course read for some hours, but that wasn't possible, as our friends had a baby with them, and are in general not the reading type.
This only made me remember one time at Raca last year with Blondi, when we were at about 9.00 pm in our bed, reading and my sister called and asked what I was doing, and I said I was reading. Then a long pause came and she asked me what was my guest doing during this time, and I laughed and said she was reading also....this made me realize more that this fact is something unusual, and people have other occupations for socialization than...reading! :D:D

Of course it's been quite some time since this vacation...and I'm already exhausted again... but it was well worth it, as I got to stay at my darling home in Racasdia for more than a week, and I intend to go back as soon as I can, maybe next weekend even....There are even some friends like Blondi and her bf that would like to come with me, the only problem I am encountering right now is to make M understand that if I wait a little bit longer to go home I will probably not make it with my bike, as it's getting really chilly, and the trip has still 150 km to go....and the longer we wait, the surer it gets that there will be no bike ride anymore this year...
He is also busy with his custom bike work, but I am just very sad at any weekend that goes by and I can't go see my darling home. We'll have to get to an agreement on this, and fast.
In another order of ideas I am glad autumn is coming, because my writing is at its peak during this seazon. Gloomy days really inspire me, whatever anyone might think...
I said as much here some time ago...I love foggy mornings, in fact last week I had to wake up for work and not see a thing beyond my apartment terrace....and I went to work with my bike! I was alone on the highway, but don't worry, it's only 13 km up to my office, and the experience was as well thrilling as it gave me goose bumps. I always loved being the passenger in cars and buses during trips like this, I was never the driver, and it felt strange but also gave me a creepy adrenalin rush at the same time. This might sound crazy, but it's the truth!
I am having a breath from writing for cash, but I do hope it's not a very long one, as it's really rewarding to see the "fruits" of your work, be it a petty sum.....
My head is full of ideas, I would like to write on my desired subjects, my books and novels list to read awaits, my home is a mess, my cats are driving me crazy because they are very crazy and undisciplined and do a mess out of all things, I am also craving to go outside on a picnic or something, as I've just tols M this morning, I would love to take a ride on any horse, and on my bike also...and all at once, please!

Now why do I even wonder why I can't remember what I had yesterday for breakfast, when all these ideas are swirming in my head? Should I even bother? And above it all, I've decided to put on paper all my opinions regarding religion and belief....just to top it all off, and of course to have it all in front of me and decide once and for all about what I truly believe in....
But don't worry, I 'll figure it all out somehow...someday....
On the reading side of things, I am reading an easy book on the life of Augustinus, trying to keep it simple, see?

..which I've borrowed from my friend Andy, as if I haven't got enough books to read that belong to me already.....:D... but I just can't help myself!

My next story will have to present the gifts I' ve received from my friend that went oversees in vacations, which gifts are all awesome and strangely similar...they must really know me....:D!
Until next time,
Bisous!
