Because sometimes the most complicated thing is actually really simple yet we can not see it as such.

Vampire Books

Since at the moment Vampires are fashionable all around, someone told me to read a series of books related to the subject. Those are part of a series of books (so far 10) wrote by Charlaine Harris.

In Mexico, only the first 3 ones are available, and so got to read them: Dead until Dark, Living Dead in Dallas, Club Dead.

In the book series, Vampires have told the world about themselves, and they drink a blood substitute called TruBlood to keep a nice image toward human, yet they still drink blood from living humans.

In the books, in a place called Bon Temps in Louisiana lives Sookie Stackhouse, a human capable of reading minds, and one night she meets a vampire (Bill) at the bar she works at as waitress. Something happens that she ends up saving him from being killed, and they end up becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.

Each book goes into this love relationship between a Vampire and a Human, but also tells about a mystery as an alternate plot to make things interesting.

On book one there is a murderer killing girls who have been related to vampires in an intimate way, and the main suspect is Sookie's brother, since he has been in a relation with each of the first two girls murdered. So Sookie has to find the real murderer before he kills her.

Second book, the chief vampire in Dallas that has gone missing, and apparently an anti-vampire church called "Sun Worshipers" are the ones that maybe kidnapped him. Sookie is recruited by the vampires to help them investigate the church and find there whereabouts of this missing vampire, in hopes of rescuing him.

Third book, in this case Vampire Bill has been kidnapped by vampires from another state, and those vampires received help from werewolves. Sookie has to go and rescue her boyfriend.

One can say that the books are entertaining, but I finished reading them maybe too fast.

Also the books promote the TV series based on them, called True Blood, so maybe I'll look into that to check it and see if it is fun to watch.

Antique, Water, Frustration, Hungry, Tower

Panfilo woke up Monday with the hope that WATER was to be at his home again. It was over a week that the neighborhood has been without the precious liquid, and unfortunately he lived on one of the buildings with ANTIQUE plumbing that did not have a water reservoir for such cases. All his water was contained in a couple of buckets around the apartment, so he had to be very careful with his water usage. Luckily he had other ways to cover for some of the activities that required it. He went to shower at the sports-club, used the nearby mall and office bathroom as much as possible, went outside to eat to avoid washing dishes, but FRUSTRATION had grown on him. Once outside the bed, he went to the bathroom with hope, but the open faucet with no water cut his illusion dry, again he would have to travel to the sports club, and drive back to the office building to arrive HUNGRY at the nearby cafeteria to have breakfast. It was during the afternoon lunch-break, that the radio finally had good news; the water pumps by the TOWERS were finally fixed and ready to go by the afternoon. The hope to finally have a nice bath at home was the best thing to finish a day.

Remake V Series

Remake V Series

Weekend was grounded, so my entertainment consisted from things coming out of a screen or book.

Some time ago, I heard that a remake was being made of one of my favorite childhood TV series.

The V series

Oh, so great memories of childhood like the aliens becoming reptiles, how they ate the mice, or the hybrid baby being borne and bathed in oil, or the beautiful Diana leader of he aliens.


A few days ago I finally managed to get the new V series, season 1 to see it. It turned to be half-interesting.

Visitors in this new series seem more technologically advanced, and more used to use deception and conspiracy. But on the other side for the full season we never got to see how the aliens look like in reptile form. The most we get is the eyes, and a few glimpses of reptile skin when their human skin got cut.

The resistance-rebellion at the first chapters was really interesting, to see how they meet each other, how they go in their minds changing to deal with their own personal conflicts on why to be part of the rebellious group. But since till the end of the series the Aliens, have not invaded Earth, their resistance efforts seem kind of silly, except for the two ones that happen on board the visitor’s spaceships.


Now to wait and hope that there is a second season, since apparently from the hint of final season chapter, the invasion is about to begin.
