<p>I can&#8217;t express how wonderful that feels.</p>
<p>I feel pretty grateful right now. This is amazing and so gracious by the wonderful people over the La Lakers Blog.</p>

<p>So here we are.</p>
<p>Awake at 4 am, to see the Lakers of course.</p>
<p>PAU IS BACK!!! And damn it shows <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Kobe is the 2nd all time scorer for the Purple&#38;Gold family.</p>
<p>We took over the Bulls.</p>
<p>Amazing <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Just a perfect night: after a wonderful Wii League Thursdays where I happened to gain back my Nintendo PLayer Crown of Empress of the game. I won in Band Hero (I&#8217;m getting really good with singing. Decent with drumming. I am disappointingly average with guitar, gotta admit!), I won in Wii Resort, and also at Rabbids.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m like the Lakers <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  (and I was dressed with my Kobe 24 sweater (of course) these high boots of Chanel (my favs!)</p>
<div id="attachment_371" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 200px"><a href="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mygucciboots.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-371" title="MyGucciBoots" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mygucciboots.jpg" alt="" width="190" height="256" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">My Gucci</p></div>
<p>and a white cotton leotard with arm sleeves (white, of course).</p>
<p> I was practically the sexy sporty version of a dudette of the 60&#8217;s, since the sweater is like a mini dress on me.</p>
<p>Now I have to post some at the <a href="http://lakersblog.latimes.com/lakersblog/" target="_blank">Lakers Blog</a> (how I love be there?) and then rush to work <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Btw, about the adored babies, it seems that all of them (particularly Matty angel) are a bit under the weather (well, it&#8217;s natural in November). This won&#8217;t stop <a href="http://www.twitter.com/adamlevine" target="_blank">Adam</a> from eating garbage it seems. Oh, boy&#8230; he&#8217;s like a 12 years old. Love him for this as well <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So&#8230; final is : Lakers beat Chicago Bulls 108-93.</p>
<p>Pau is back.</p>
<p>Lakers now can trash everyone.</p>
<p>And I am finally on fully daily sex mode again.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s celebrate <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>What an awful night.</p>
<p>I woke up at 3h30 am to witness the unthinkeable, even after the (much expected from me) Denver&#8217;s beating up against us on Friday.</p>
<p>Houston Rockets defeated us HOME. In a way that lets me unable to react lightfully even now that is 1 pm.</p>
<p>AWFUL.</p>
<p>I won&#8217;t digrss cos all I had to say is under <a href="http://lakersblog.latimes.com/lakersblog/" target="_blank">Lakers Blog </a>commentaries.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m here unable to sleep or get rest and all I have done after Karim left me to get back to his loft is listening to music, eating Hershey&#8217;s bars and whining.</p>
<p>Literally.</p>
<p>I can eat cos I have to put wiight back on: I am now 109 pounds and I have to never get below 111, doc says. So&#8230; bring it on all worst and lovely healing food. I think I&#8217;ll grow those two pounds in just today.</p>
<p>Luckely weekend has been awesome. Yesterday it was raining and Karim and I just had fun, played chess and cards, had amazing conversations, listening to lots of great music, had a blast as cooking masters (thanx <a href="http://www.twitter.com/gallimel" target="_blank">Meli </a>for the recipes and&#8230; for joining Twitter!!!!) and just kept being lovey dovey with each other.</p>
<p>Karim even wanted to bid for me for a guitar Prince <a href="http://www.charityfolks.com/cfauctions/auction_bid.asp?auctionid=17608&#38;catname=Music+%26+Concerts&#38;mcid=8749" target="_blank">Adam</a> auctioned three days ago but as he went there (max was 2500$) the bid had already been done. Whoooa. There are some other crazy collectors beside me in this world. Oh, well&#8230; next time. No problems. But it was cute Karim wanted to gift me with that. It was to lift me up after Lakers loss in Denver. Woha. What about today&#8217;s loss then?</p>
<p>No.. okay. I am gonna stop this grooming. I know.</p>
<p>Tickets for Las Vegas are in though. As the booking for the Palms. And airplanes. I just need my chief to give me the off days. It&#8217;s Karim&#8217;s Xmas gift. Tell me if he isn&#8217;t THE BEST.</p>
<p>I won every bid when I got him. Oh, yes.</p>
<p>Have a great starting of the week.</p>
<p>Mark, angel&#8230; gotta study a bit of your Country to not mistake what is my latest guess. So.. expect my guess tomorrow.</p>
<p>Luv ya too dear friend. Don&#8217;t be sorry for what you wrote me. Is all okay <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Luv <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Oh.. this morning among others I listened to some Raf&#8217;s greatest hits.  Luv the man. For some reason I chose this to show you. It&#8217;s old. I like it.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>This very morning doc came in and visited me. Chicken pox is healing well, I have no freakin scars so far (Karim has explored me well on that&#8230;) and although I keep being infectious I&#8217;m on my way to be perfectly fine <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I won&#8217;t probably go in San Francisco along Karim for thanxgiving for I might be still with some blisters, and moreover due to the fact if I wanna have a hope to get in Las Vegas for New Years Eve (and <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Maroon5 gig </span></strong>in there at Pearl Theathre inside Palms hotel) I can&#8217;t claim further holidays days till 29th of December. There you go. Karim says it&#8217;s okay. I wonder what will his parents think on that but anyway thanxgiving is an American holiday and ehy!&#8230; I&#8217;m Italian. I don&#8217;t have to attend forcedly (no, okay, this sounds bad and it&#8217;s not meant to.. it&#8217;s just that is preferable for a long series of reasons that I stay quiet here in Italy. Though I&#8217;ll miss the event. I know I will. And&#8230; I will miss Karim a LOT.)</p>
<p>Today the only Wii tournament will be for me and Karim. I&#8217;m getting used to <a href="http://twitpic.com/ozflj" target="_blank">Band Hero </a>well, and I always love to detail how Adam&#8217;s avatar has got all of his arm sleeve detailed on him so greatly <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> . I would also love to catch Fox Crime&#8217;s &#8220;<strong>Il Mostro di Firenze</strong>&#8220;. I&#8217;m not up for tv, but some tv might be good sometimes.</p>
<p>Talkin about babies, I have to share this they did through their pages. It&#8217;s a Green Oriented thing so you ALL should just learn how to be like they (and WE) are. It&#8217;s for your own interest, after all.</p>
<p>So&#8230; take a look at <a href="http://www.reverb.org/project/M5/" target="_blank">Reverb</a>, and grow a green conscience.  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  I LOVE the video btw <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Today again babies are playing but yesterday <a href="http://www.twitter.com/adamlevine" target="_blank">Adam</a> enjoyed NY city life (and not so erm&#8230; shareable food tastes, even though it seems <a href="http://www.twitter.com/JRCarmichael" target="_blank">Jesse</a> and lots of his friends share that fondness for tuna wasabi pizza&#8230; Eww!) while <a href="http://www.twitter.com/jamesbvalentine" target="_blank">James</a> had a close encounter with a great docu movie that I hope comes to Italy uncut and faithful, called &#8220;Collapse&#8221;.</p>
<div id="attachment_363" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-363" title="Chelsea Pier Bowling house" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/chelsea-pier-bowling-house.jpg?w=300" alt="Chelsea Pier Bowling house" width="300" height="180" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Chelsea Pier at 300 New York Bowling alley.</p></div>
<p>At night Divine A. allegedly went to a friends&#8217; night out including <strong>Bowling</strong>. And of course girls (I decode that from &#8220;Babies&#8221;. And everybody knows I&#8217;m right there). When in NY Karim and I enjoyed with his West Village friends a great place called <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Chelsea Pier</span></strong>: not only bowling but lots of courts and shops and restaurant too. New York has just so much in it. Too bad <a href="http://www.twitter.com/maroon5" target="_blank">Maroon5</a> decided to stay over there (there are SEVERAL dates around the area, included tonight&#8217;s one in Connecticut, which happens to be in a County that borders New York neighborhood, so it&#8217;s a string of days they are still based in New York, allegedly at the awesome Standard Hotel, one of the most designed gems in Manhattan. With Karim we&#8217;ve been at the Boom Boom Room and it was TERRIFIC) weeks later than I was there. Imagine the awesomeness of crossing paths casually! Oh, gosh. Though maybe better not. I might have been contagious for any of them. Doomed me if I had EVER caused ANY trouble to my beloved angels.</p>
<p>Finally, I post the November collage. It includes the first two Lakers games of the season Adam was able to attend at Staples being over LA, a celebration retrodated of Halloween (I have always LOVED that pic!) of Adam&#8217;s 2007 party at his house (the one of this year, you know, was awesome too, but until pics of him surface &#8211; don&#8217;t care about Katy Perry or Adam Lambert there or anyone of the guests who attended.. I just want HIS pics! &#8211; can&#8217;t post them&#8230;), a shot of the guys leaving on private plane for what should have been MY first gig &#8211; Rochester &#8211; and OMG&#8230; thanx to my friend <a href="http://www.twitter.com/terryrosa" target="_blank">Teresa</a>, who shared them over Facebook, two AWESOME shots of kid Prince Adam as well. Okay. Now you know why yesterday at a certain point I blanked on the phone. It was due to OF COURSE one of those two kids pics of him. I let you guess which one.</p>
<p>*swoooooons* <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div id="attachment_364" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-364" title="CollageNov09_01" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/collagenov09_01.jpg" alt="CollageNov09_01" width="480" height="445" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Collage November 2009</p></div>
<p>Now I better back to a GIGANTIC work on the pics of New york. Damn me, I moved more than 500 of them from the Roll Camera memory of the iPhone to an app I have on there called &#8220;Albums&#8221;. Great&#8230; they downsized the pics and the file is unreacheable for saving on Harddrive of pc. So I have to send all of them to a secret online host and then save all of them again (and downsized, DAMN!) on pc.</p>
<p>It will request two more days.</p>
<p>But Karim at least took some in high res and didn&#8217;t remove them from the roll. And I still have two hours and half of film roll. So&#8230; it&#8217;s pretty okay.</p>
<p>Dumb Miss Z. salutes you <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<description><![CDATA[&#8230; what is, in James and Tommy&#8217;s words, &#8220;best show&#8221; on the current Back To Sc]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>&#8230; what is, in <a href="http://www.twitter.com/jamesbvalentine" target="_blank">James</a> and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/TommyKing">Tommy</a>&#8217;s words, &#8220;best show&#8221; on the current Back To School M5 tour.</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s start with what makes me still bleed, though on another side I&#8217;m happy Charisse was at those gigs, cos this means I&#8217;m gonna have PRIMARY pictures, private and VERY close up, soon, to add to my private collection of lovely memorabilia. I am not up for digital you know. I want REAL pictures. Possibly framed. Possibly signed (and for the second show she brought the ones already printed from Rochester, so it MAY be&#8212; *winks*&#8212; that she got the signs on those at the Cornell one <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  YES!!! Here it goes my thanksgiving gift <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> ).</p>
<p>I learnt just two days before it took place that my first show should have been Rochester University one:</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-351" title="Rochester University" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/rochester-university.jpg?w=300" alt="Rochester University" width="300" height="172" /> The day before Maroon5 arrival in New York state, to play there,  Prince <a href="http://www.twitter.com/adamlevine">Adam </a>tweeted something obscure and negative, about something being REALLY wrong. Since the Oralndo piece seemed to have gone all fine, I was really wondering at his bitterly set and someway sad words. Well the day after, just for the gig, Charisse tweeted this &#8220;OMG zaira you couldn&#8217;t believe!!!Swapping crazy returnofsaturnz&#8221;. I thought she was blanking but shorter later <a href="http://www.twitter.com/JRCarmichael" target="_blank">Jesse </a>unveiled the mystery. <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Matt</span> had some family trouble which allegedly have forced him to withdraw for a while from being on the road (the usual <em>Maroon5</em> drummer curse? Let&#8217;s just hope all will be solved for the quickest better for sweet Matt&#8230; lotta love man!) and so in <strong>24 freakin hours sweet babies had to hire a fill-in drummer. </strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-353" title="AdrianYoung" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/adrianyoung.jpg" alt="Adrian Young of No Doubt" width="120" height="213" />The replecement, and the thing REALLY makes me go all WOOOHOOOO, is none else than <strong>No Doubt&#8217;s Adrian Young</strong>. Holy shizzzzzz!!!! I went gobsmacked by that. Everyone knows how much I love No Doubt and Gwen Stefani so to learn in 24 hours he flew coastside and joined my babies was awesome. More than that&#8230; no reharsing almost so he MUST have known LOTS of their music to fill that quickly in.</p>
<p>Result for the gig: &#8220;EPIC&#8221; in <a href="http://www.twitter.com/adamlevine" target="_blank">Divine Adam&#8217;s </a>words. I can bet that!!!</p>
<p>You wonder if I am pissed I missed that? SURE. But gotta live with it don&#8217;t I?</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-352" title="CornellUniversity Itacha NewYork" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/cornelluniversity-itacha-newyork.jpg?w=300" alt="CornellUniversity Itacha NewYork" width="300" height="252" />Second gig of mine should have been yesterday&#8217;s Cornell University (the one in between those two has been Queens one.. I would have loved to be there as well cos all NY friends of the guys were there, including <a href="http://www.twitter.com/ALECKSU">Alex Greenwald</a>, and you know that I have sort of an half-crush on him since Phantom Planet times&#8230;). Cornell University is Charisse&#8217;s one. She&#8217;s mastering Law, and I was looking forward to stay over there cos it&#8217;s classy Ivy League and I just love the place for the way it looks.</p>
<p>As you all learnt from this post start, seems like the gig was awesome. Charisse wrote me a completely out of mind short mail reading all of her excitement up as soon as it ended. </p>
<p>I just CAN&#8217;T WAIT to catch them live again. </p>
<p>And apparently I might have a GOLDEN chance on <span style="text-decoration:underline;">New Years Eve</span>.</p>
<p>From tittle ad tattle seems that <em>Maroon5</em> will be the musical guest shows at <strong>Palms in Las Vegas</strong> playing at the LOVELY <strong>Pearl Teather</strong> there (to make you understand: last year&#8217;s show was Mariah Carey&#8230;)<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-354" title="PearlTheather_1" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/pearltheather_1.jpg" alt="Pearl Theather at Las Vegas Palms hotel" width="168" height="183" /></p>
<p>That could just be most awesome of dreams. I already checked: Palms availability of suites is still in.</p>
<div id="attachment_355" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 254px"><img class="size-full wp-image-355" title="Palms-Las-Vegas" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/palms-las-vegas.jpg" alt="Palms-Las-Vegas" width="244" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Palms Hotel in Las Vegas</p></div>
<p>Tickets for the Pearl thing aren&#8217;t on sale yet AND the place holds 2500 people so I just need to be ready for the superpass whatever.</p>
<p>My only major trouble might be working duties. Being sick still, and havin taken already almost all of my holiday days up for the year, it&#8217;s not that granted I can get 31 and 30 and probably 29 up from work in December. And I need that cos the flight to Vegas requests two planes. I hope to arrange that cos to witness babies as New Year sneaks in would just be PURE PERFECTION. Cross fingers for me right? BY any means I&#8217;ll buy tickets. Then we&#8217;ll see.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-356" title="58867076" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/av_091108hornets.jpg" alt="Dj at rebounding" width="215" height="170" />On the sporty side, <strong>Milan</strong> and <strong>Lakers</strong> are still greatly managing all stuff. Lakers yesterday won again, no matter the second game in a row without both Pau and Bynum. WOW. I just saw the recorded highlights from the night (I couldn&#8217;t certainly wake up with the fever in the middle of the night you know) and really rooted in for DJ Mbenga.I can&#8217;t believe I&#8217;m writing this, but guy is like a mascotte <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I hope though Pau and Bynum can stick in back as soon as possible cos we need them especially against the Nuggets.</p>
<p>Oh&#8230; if you wonder I am at my parental home still. Mum won&#8217;t let me go before I&#8217;m fully okay. So I am like a pampered queen, even more than usual. My collegues at work sent me flowers <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Awww they&#8217;re cute <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>My friends miss me and I think that is also cos by now I am the only one having<strong> Band Hero</strong> (Karim bought me that in USA still) and they can&#8217;t wait to play it (kidding, I know they just love me..). I wish I could set up a Wii night already on thursday but I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s gonna happen.</p>
<p>Karim is the only coming. He comes again tonight. It&#8217;s fun cos mum won&#8217;t let him have a sleep over and so when he comes he gets to sleep in my half house on the other side of teh backyard here <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  That makes me feel like a 14 years old <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  But mum has her ideas, though she knows Karim and especially my own ways to live sexuality up, and she&#8217;s approving what we do and how we do that.</p>
<p>Not that I can have any until all spots and crusts haven&#8217;t fully disappeared but&#8230; you get the picture. She knows about that and has no trouble with that. Just that she doesn&#8217;t like to hear me scream while under her same roof I guess. I can live with that. I understand that. I also can&#8217;t cope with the idea of listening to my parents making out or make it, you know. I get that <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyway I miss to have sex with Karim A LOT. I can&#8217;t wait to be safely allowed to have him. I think I&#8217;m gonna kill him by then <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I bet he can&#8217;t wait <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So dear&#8230; have you all a wonderful wonderful time these days. I am off to some new nap time so I can rest better. Fever is just slightly above the average. I am on my road to be okay again (I have lost a bit too much of weight, though. Don&#8217;t like to be THIS skinny. But appetite will do me good later <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
<p>CU&#8230; bye bye!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>Maroon 5 Album Trailer #3!</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/VzXdlpYrWh4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/VzXdlpYrWh4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>So&#8230; I have something to say. Though it will result quick, harsh, not understandeable to majority, and scatterly chaotic.</p>
<p>Before all goes insane, I let you see the awesome third trailer the beloveds graced us with yesterday just before getting into their second gig in Lousville, KY.</p>
<p>Today to be honest there is also another YouTube graceful piece, from the first gig actually,  with the live rendition of Last Chance. But I can&#8217;t post it. I can&#8217;t even load it and listen to it. Cos&#8230; you know&#8230; I have got FRICKIN CHICKEN POX, right after Halloween and after what had been till then most amazing time of my life in New York City and so&#8230;</p>
<p>NO MORE COLLEGE GIGS.</p>
<p>No way I can listen to Last Chance live myself.</p>
<p>No way I can win agaisnt James at tennis contest.</p>
<p>No way I can catch again divine Adam on stage and out of it.</p>
<p>I let you imagine how I feel.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-348" title="iPhone roll pics 042" src="http://zairaamaterasu.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/iphone-roll-pics-042.jpg?w=225" alt="New York City Hall" width="225" height="300" />My dad came to Gramercy Park Hotel (btw, I have heard Rihanna was here these past days? She must hide well&#8230; never crossed her sight or her huge entourage?!??) yesterday evening to bring me back to Italy. An US officer will accompany us at JFK and then in Milan. There&#8217;s some huge burocracy goinon, but all I can think of is that I hate all this, and that with these spots on my face and body I am darn ugly.</p>
<p>And I can&#8217;t have sex.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m SO angry.</p>
<p>I know it&#8217;s unfair&#8230; I had such a great time in NY&#8230; so much to tell and I will but now&#8230; Darn&#8230; not even the Milan&#8217;s game of yesterday against Real, nor seeing Kakà again.. not the Lakers win cheered me up enough to chase away the regret for being forced to miss the gigs.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t even know why I am ranting here.</p>
<p>Just have to make hours pass before we leave to JFK around NY 4 pm..</p>
<p>I am SO sad.</p>
<p>I know, I will recover.</p>
<p>And I will tell you about New York, beside all the huge twitters about it I made. I will tell how this holiday and even this disease is cementing it all so awesomely with my Karim.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s actually the only bright light in all this loss.</p>
<p>But not today.</p>
<p>My stomach aches and it&#8217;s not for antibiotics.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s due to this:</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/dIMDEN0wcf4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/dIMDEN0wcf4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>and all the light I will miss from the shining angel of my heart.</p>
<p>I was almost forgetting: this post from their blog was as usual full of their amazing human touch, so take a look.</p>
<p><a href="http://hcz.org/maroon5">http://hcz.org/maroon5</a></p>
<p>About me&#8230; Well I&#8217;ll be better. I wonder if I did spread the disease on Halloween. Probably yes. Luckely Karim already had it as a kid. Well&#8230; hang on a minute&#8230; EVERYBODY has this as a kid.</p>
<p>DARN.</p>
<p>Better stop this now or I will get on fuming and fumbling around. *sigh*.</p>
