nem dormi ainda, meu caro Ivanzinho, meu relogio biologico funciona, nesta estação do ano, pelo hemisferio norte. e ainda vou encarar a chegada de sogro, sogra, 2 cunhados e mulheres e crianças, mas aa noite eu me solto no mundão da cidade alta, minha Macondo ou Combray, dependendo do leitor e aduzindo de antemão que de Proust eu não tenho a viadagem, embora nada tenha contra eles - os tais viados -, muitos amigos meus são e muitos são melhores que a grande maioria dos machões de bigodões, barrigudões, assistidores de televisão bebericando cervejas. Afe, que povo ridiculo esse que grita: "Nêga ,frite uns salgadinhos, traga uma gelada, gooooooooooollllllllllllllll," ora puerra, vou dormir!
inté+ a noite.
