Yesterday I came back to Strasbourg. I also watched “La chate à deux têtes” by Jacques Nolot. I sincerely love him.
I think perhaps it would be a good idea to write down the movies I’ve watched lately and the books I’ve been reading, so that they won’t be lost in the past. I will try to do that as often as I can.
As of last week:
1) Movies
- Mildred Pierce
- Gummo
- The Night Porter
- Alice
- Flamingo Road
- Wild Tigers I Have Known
- O Ano Em Que Meus Pais Sairam De Férias
- One documentary about Bette Davis and another one about Joan crawford.
- La chatte à deux têtes
- Je Tu Il Elle
2) Books:
- The Working Brain
- Ted Hughes’ complete poems
3) Art exhibitions:
- Richard Wagner (cité de la musique)
- Lascaux caves
4) church:
- Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus (Paris).
I saw this weird japanese guy on the train (he had really long painted nails). There’s no snow in Strasbourg so far. I’m afraid of going back to work.

It’s funny how childhood goes on and on, even when we hide inside adult bodies. Three days ago I visited the Lascaux caves nearby and, despite the fact that I wasn’t completely mesmerized by what I saw, it still was very enjoyable.
I also started studying and imagining more seriously the Neanderthals. Maybe some day I will write my own science-fiction love story scenario (an american white girl who falls in love with a Neanderthal during the 50s. Disaster: they can’t have babies.)
