La Delirante

Every now and again someone will come into your life and change the way you view things. For me this happened recently with two people.

 

Firstly there was my friend from the good old US of A. We became firm drinking buddies and shared philosophies on life, women and food. I learned a lot from him and will always be forever thankful that we became friends. (See the post ‘Absent Friend’ from 20th February 2008).

 

The second one came into my life about a year and a half ago. We met as colleagues and during the time we have worked together she too has taught me a lot about life, about cultures far removed from my own, about music and about friendship. Sadly our time as colleagues is about to come to an end and so I would like to dedicate this post as a tribute to her; La Delirante.

    Thank you very much Freddy :) I am honoured to have such a good friend.

    I am very glad that I have met you and that we worked together for over 18 months. I have learned so much from you and we have shared so much too!: music, films, books, etc. More than that, the feeling of having found a very good friend is priceless.

    Even if most likely our lives will take different pathways, I am sure that we will keep in touch and that the moments shared will remain in our minds as a beautiful memory.

    Don’t forget to keep in touch to check the 2012 Maya prophecies :) Keep on blogging!

    “What’s Under Your Bed?: dismembered bodies”

    BTW, I pity the person who would have to clean your place with all those bodies around :)

    Hi Wen, thanks for the comments.

    The bodies under the bed are those of the Maltese drivers who cut me up, pull out on me, keep smashing the bumpers on my car because they don’t know how to parallel park, drive the wrong way along one way streets and the wrong way around traffic round-abouts, don’t stop at red traffic signals or pedestrian crossings… in short at the rate I’m going almost the entire population will be crammed under my bed and I’ll need to find somewhere else to sleep.
