from miss-shapes to tate modern

So, indeed Davide and I went to Miss-Shapes. Brilliant night - the music was great, the crowd was good as usual.
I even met this absolutely gorgeous guy from Glasgow.

It's been dry season for me. Haven't met anyone interesting in a club or pub in quite a while, so when a cute guy is interested I get interested as well. We chatted a while, and after exchanging phone numbers, I had to go home (working the next day). We arranged to meet on Saturday and there we went for a nice art walk along Tate Modern's bits and pieces, nice coffee in Covent Garden and a falafel in Soho's Old Compton St.
Quite nice Saturday afternoon I must say, althoug I think the interest wasn't balanced - as usual I end up more interested than the reciprocated. He is a lovely and interesting guy and I think and hope we can be in touch.

Dates are great but they also bring to the surface all our insecurities. I always feel like a mediterranean version of Woody Allen on a date.

Saturday night went for Jonathan's birthday party in Greenwich. Jonathan is a friend of Davide's that has become kind of a friend as well. So it was his b'day party and never expecting much from house parties, I already had a Plan B just in case - if the party sucked I could leave and go to Wigout and meet some other friends there. The fact is that it didn't suck at all - there were a lot of interesting multi-cultural people and I had a bit too much to drink and ended up there until 3.30. There was this guy, Jason, piano teacher, quite interesting. So we're going to meet for a drink this week, although I have that weird thing when it comes to pianists (see "Nuno Lopes").

Não há fome que não dê em fartura. :) Same as "when it rains it pours"

Sunday, last day of my friend Atalaya in London. Nice chat over a coffee about plans for the future. She's going back to Santiago in Galicia to continue her museum studies, but left totally in love with London. It was nice having her around, although we only met twice in the last month. I reckon she'll be back soon.
