Help with translation: Jupiter and cheese?

Question

I just received an email from my boyfriend (de Panamá) and one of the lines has me completely confused.

At the end of a paragraph in which he was telling me some of the things he likes about me (aww), he included this:

"Son cosas que me tienen en Jupiter sonando que la luna es de queso."

My rough translation was: "They are things I have in Jupiter sounding like the moon is made of cheese" or "They are things I have in Jupiter dreaming that the moon is made of cheese" (sonando could be "soñando" because he never includes accents).

WHAT? I will talk to him later tonight to glean some clarification, but in the mean time...does anyone have an idea of what he's saying? This one is completely lost on me.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Answer 1

it´s soñando ----> dreaming

There are things that keep me in Jupiter (I´m like floating, my feet don´t touch the ground)

´dreaming that the moon is made of cheese´ (he´s probably hungry up there! )

It seems he´s trying to say he´s completely in love with you

Thanks so much for the clarification. I feel like an idiot now. How sweet of him! And I've learned something new through the translation process! - mapletw, Oct 29, 2010

Answer 2

Things that make me feel like if I were in Jupiter.

"La luna es de queso". Pure poetry...! Your friend is a dreamer

Wow, I guess it's been a long week...the sentiment flew right over my head! Thanks for your help...I thought he had gone mad, and here it is that he was being a total sweetheart! - mapletw, Oct 29, 2010
