Young Fasani’s economy adjustments are due that in the latest month’s I’ve been *slightly* spending more than what I’m earning. So after receiving some calls from my bank and others from Madrid’s Corte Ingles I’ve decided to take action (yes…I’ve charged gas with CI card). Things that affected my economy are the IPC rent yearly adjustment, the summer inactivity, and that Google took one of my sites our of their index 3 months ago.

So far this are the measures to take action 1st August, that I’ll try to follow with methodology :

  • Credit card not in my wallet but at home. I’ll not spend money that I don’t have since later ‘ve to pay about 15% interest. If you want to see money’s real value, borrow it.
  • Going by bike to work at least 2 times a week. 7 km, 20 minutes of sweating.
    Gas spending actually is about 40€ per week, so maybe a 20 % reduction ? (with some added benefits like the good excercise)
  • No more ‘Cuenta’ addition in the bar upstairs work.
    About 50€ savings per month.
  • I’ll start to make some money doing several different things online and I’ll blog about it. Lately this blog has been on holydays but it will start to focus as soon as I implement this.

This are so far the 4 big points of the plan. I’m curious about other forth coming adjustments…

First, this is the new cool addition in the Calendar (weather prediction squares) :

Google weather in calendar
It’s available under the Settings menu. Quite cool, huh ?

Another thing I’ve read is that they are launching their own affiliate network.

Actual search volume in Google:

(Credits go to Peter for this one)

Sumo con crema, la banda que escuche por primera vez en la Sala Assaig, cambio de nombre y ahora se llaman After Chabon como el último disco de Sumo. El cambio de nombre me parece acertado. Pero el nombre da igual, lo importante es la energía que sacan en vivo. Y lo importante es que los escuchare de nuevo, asi que les dejo los detalles:

AFTER CHABON
26 de JULIO, 11.30 en el segundo de los molinos de la calle Industria.

(Si no recuerdo mal, hay estaba antes el Zambezi, una cueva donde recuerdo vagamente haber bailado como si estuviera poseido)

Por esas cosas de la vida, cuando escuchaba Sumo hace unos 10 o 12 años siempre me hubiese gustado haberlos vistos en vivo pero era demasiado tarde. Asi que ahora tengo una nueva oportunidad ;)
Se los recomiendo a todas aquellas almas felices, seguidoras del buen rock & roll y/o amantes del funk y el reggae, de seguro no saldran decepcionadas.

Si quieren escuchar como suenan, aqui tienen algunas de sus canciones.

I’ve got some emails and comments about how bad my poetry is.

I think that even some of them will stop reading my blog ;). I recommend them “Peinate que viene gente“, from Jose Playo (spanish though). Maybe it will make them their morning happy or at least it will make them laugh.

Lately I’m quite busy in another stories and I do not find the time to blog. In July, at least, I will do it only when I have something worth saying. Till then, enjoy my blogroll, and Be happy.
