sísifus

A few weeks ago, I started following the blog of this guy who calls himself Sísifus, and who lives in Sabadell, Catalunya. His whole blog is in Catalan, so I get to read and stay in touch with my beloved català. I must have always lived in Catalunya in my past lives, because I adore all things Catalan. I miss living in Barcelona.

I found him because we share not just one, but two favorite movies. I have to admit that finding someone who actually knows what I am talking about when I say that my favorite movie is Rouge (everybody thinks I mean Moulin Rouge), but finding someone who not only knows and likes that movie happens to like Harry, un ami qui vous veut du bien (or With a Friend Like Harry, in English) as well, is extremely unusual; I thought it impossible before this.

Then, I read that he talked about Astrology and, check this out: Quantum Christmas. Based on this, Spain's lottery winning number this year would have been 50060, which is the zip code in Corydon, Iowa. That really intrigued me because I am a numerology freak who put all his money on Mulberry Grove's 62262. The actual winning number was 32365, oh, well...

Oh, and he is a placomusophile, someone who collects metal caps or cork wires covering the top of cava and champagne bottles. How cool is this guy???

Y para responder a tu curiosidad, Sísifus: fueron un par de películas, la astrología, la numerología y las placas de cava lo que me hicieron ser tu primer seguidor. No hay mucha selección de cava por aquí, pero brindo por tu blog y tus interesantes historias con un poco de Freixenet que compré en el supermercado esta tarde. Salut, amic meu!
