Its now 431 in the morning. I have to go to look at apartments at 930 tomorrow....and I can't sleep....AND i'm supposed to with Paula's (my friend who I live with's) dad. I'm gonna be a mess. I hope I can fall asleep by 5... So heres the lowdown on what I've done. I landed at 3:00 yesterday after being up for 24 hours. I took a 1 1/2 hour nap, got up, showered, went to see Ratatouille (in Spanish of course) then went out for dinner and drinks until 1:30. We ate tomatos with shaved goat cheese, croquetas filled with ham and cheese, and fried potates covered in jamon serrano, onion, and something else...I can't remember. Woke up this morning, oops I mean this afternoon, at 1:30 (Thursday) just in time for 3:00 dinner (garlic rice with onion, garlic, and calamari dyed with ink, hake with parsley and lemon, peas with garlic. Searched online for apartments, visited 1 that was RIDICULOUSLY SMALL (the bedroom couldn't fit a twin bed...it had a bed smaller than a dorm bed) and went to see about a cell phone. Then, came home, searched more online, made a batch of brownies, and got ready to go out. Went out for dinner at 9:30 with 8 people (grilled octopus with asparagus wrapped in bacon and fried potatoes, tuna and eel salad with hardboiled eggs, peas, and mayonaise, and fried string potatoes, beef, and jamon serrano over zucchini. Went to a bar with music until 2...followed that up with a VERY Spanish club until 345...now I'm in bed. good night and adios.
