Last night I went to bed at 10pm, fell asleep quickly, got up at 1:30am to pee, again at 5:20, finally waking/getting up at 6:45.
According to my Fitbit, I got in 5,913 steps yesterday and
last night I slept for 6 hours and 47 minutes for a sleep score of 78.
I left the apt at 9am and walked to the mall. Outside I ran
into the gringo I’ve seen every few months but I don’t remember his name. ☹ He was waiting for his wife then they were going to
go up to Ely’s for breakfast.
I withdrew 2,000,000 pesos from a Davivienda ATM (first I tried
the Servibanca for all 100s but it hasn’t worked in weeks) and got a mix of bills.
Back downstairs I printed a couple pages of our Airbnb information then paid
the epm bill of 422mil. I cut through the parking garage and up to Urbania where
I had a latte and completed another page of 12 chess puzzles, getting 4 of them
wrong. I played a 15+10 game against a player with an 80-point higher rating
but lost in 42 moves.
I left at 11am and walked through the new Nomada section
until I found the little Ely’s restaurant. I stopped in the store that
makes hats and ordered one with ANNIE JAMES’ GRANDPA embroidered on it for
89,900 pesos. It supposed to be ready by Sunday but I’ll probably pick it up on
Tuesday when I make the payments for September. Nearby I found a bookstore (with
books in Spanish of course) for early readers. I think I’ll probably pick up a
few for Annie’s birthday.
I walked to Eduardo Madrid where I found a sleeve of
6 sesame seed bagels which should last me until our trip.
I had a nap after lunch where I slept for 34 minutes per
Fitbit.
I left at 2:30 for Gardenia where I completed another
page of chess puzzles missing 3. I played another 15+10 game against a player rated
50 points higher and won in 22 moves.
I left at 5pm and returned to the apt.
Teresa was supposed to get a 6pm massage from Kelly but she
said she called at 5pm and Teresa didn’t answer so she cancelled.
I finished watching The Last House (5.5) on Netflix
and then watched Extinction (5.8).

JOKE OF THE DAY
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN
Eating Out
When the bill arrives,
Mike, Dave and John will each throw in $20, even though it's only for $32.50.
None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want
change back.
When the girls get
their bill, out come the pocket calculators.
Money
A man will pay $2 for
a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1
for a $2 item she doesn't need but it's on sale.
Bathrooms
A man has six items in
his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap,
and a towel.
The average number of
items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337. And a man wouldn’t be able to
identify more than 20 of them.
Arguments
A woman has the last
word in any argument.
Anything a man says
after that - is the beginning of a new argument.
Future
A woman worries about
the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries
about the future until he gets a wife.
Success
A successful man is
one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is
one who can find such a man.
Marriage
A woman marries a man
expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman
expecting she won't change, but she does.
Dressing Up
A woman will dress up
to go shopping, water the plants, empty the trash, answer the phone, read a
book, and get the mail.
A man will dress up
for weddings and funerals.
Natural
Men wake up as
good-looking as they went to bed.
Women somehow
deteriorate during the night.
Children
A woman knows all
about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best
friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware
of some short people living in the house.
Thought for the Day
A married man should forget his
mistakes. There's no reason for two people to have to remember the same thing!
