I slept well despite getting up twice
during the night, waking at 5:30 and getting up at 6:30.
As usual I watched the first 20 minutes
of the Today show and left for the
gym. I completed all but 2 of my
exercises in an hour and 40 minutes. I
left a little early because I thought Teresa would be serving an early lunch
and I need time to cool down, shower and relax a bit beforehand.
Teresa left to go with her mother for
her water exercise. I’m sure Teresa will
be somewhere on the “sideline” because I don’t think she can swim a lick.
I continue to solve 40 chess puzzles a
day. So far, for this 2nd
cycle I have improved my speed and my accuracy – the latter so far improving
from an average of 75% to 90%.
Teresa called me about 3:30 and informed
me that Jose emailed me and that I should answer. I told her I can’t answer because we don’t
have any internet.
She said she’s returning to the apt so
maybe we’ll have time to see the movie at Oviedo
At 4:30 I noticed a black Une van outside. A few minutes later I saw a man standing
outside on the sidewalk manipulating some device that looked from here like a
credit card reader.
Teresa returned a few minutes later and
told me Une is outside. Laura called a few minutes later and told me
she’s in Santafe mall and Une is
outside the apt. That makes it
unanimous. Une fixing the wifi is top
priority – if they finish on time we’ll go outside and catch a taxi real quick
for the movie. Our options are Oviedo
Laura called Teresa and told her she
would not be able to meet us for the movie.
About 5:15 Teresa talked to the men
working outside and they assured her they would not need to get in the
apt. We walked down the hill and quickly
caught a taxi to Oviedo
We went downstairs to the food court
where Teresa bought a turkey sandwich for us to share at Subway.
Back upstairs we killed some time
looking at our cellphones then got in line and bought a large soda for Teresa,
a medium soda for me, and a small popcorn to share for a total of 19,200. I wanted to buy a package of their Cine Pop popcorn
to try but it took them so long to figure out which button to press that I
ended up cancelling it. My remaining
balance is 16,000 pesos and I now have something like 32 tickets purchased
using my Cine Colombia card.
We both enjoyed The Equalizer 2 starring Denzel Washington.
Outside the mall we immediately caught a
taxi back to the apt for 8mil.
As soon as I entered the apt I could
tell that … we still don’t have wifi.
Drat! It looks like I’ll be going
to Parque Lleras again tomorrow night to watch the Bears vs Buffalo Bills which
starts at 7pm.
Today’s Step Count was 9,222.
Joke of the day
Andy
Rooney on Grandma.
My grandmother has a bumper sticker on her car that says, 'Sexy Senior Citizen.' You don't want to think of your grandmother that way, do you? Out entering wet shawl contests. Makes you wonder where she got that dollar she gave you for your birthday.
