Last night I took a Zopiclona and went to bed at 10:30, got up twice during the night, finally waking/getting up at 6:45.
I left the apt just before 8am and walked to outside the
gym. Ciclovia was in progress as I waited for a bus. At 8:10 I decided to wait
only another 5 minutes and if no bus I would take a taxi. A bus arrived 1
minute later. I got off at Parque Poblado and walked down calle 10 to carrera 43E.
I turned right and walked a block only to find that it was like a cul de sac. I
reversed my steps and went north on carrera 43C to calle 10A and then back down
the hill to 43E. I turned right and walked past the Ganso & Castor
Manila to Cambria at Carrera 43E #12-16. Glenn and James were already
there. Today is James last day as he leaves tomorrow for Peru so he can reset
his clock with Colombia and return January 1st. I had their French toast
which was much better than the “deep fried” version at Ganso & Castor.
At one point the manager came out and spoke to us in English. With my 2 cafes
my total with tip was 35mil. We would return except that Bianca wasn’t allowed
inside – she was tied up just the other side of the fence from our table. I called
Teresa and she asked me to meet her at SantaFe mall. I told her I should be
there by 11am.
When we left we walked a block south to the Ganso
& Castor (Carrera 43E #11A-30) which, besides ample seating inside, had
several tents set up with a lot of available seating. I walked the guys to
Calle 10 where Glenn waited for a taxi back to his apt and James turned west to
the metro. I tried for a few minutes to catch a taxi but everyone had riders. I
walked up to Avenida Poblado and I immediately realized I wouldn’t be catching
a bus to SantaFe mall because ciclovia was still going on. I called Teresa to
explain I would be late but she didn’t answer. I was walking up Avenida Poblado
when I was suddenly startled by a drone hovering just over my head. That was a
first. It was about a 30-minute walk to the mall. I found Teresa at Zara
and she did some more window shopping while I rested. We went to J&C Delicias
for lunch and she had her usual surf & turf and I had a Ceasar salad. She
did some more shopping and found a pair of Nikes in Sport Line America. We
returned to the apt by taxi.
I beat Teresa in parcheesi today 2 games to 1.
There was something on the evening news about Colombia
creating a digital cedula. (Someone on Expat Exchange wrote that it will be
available starting December 1st to Colombian citizens only for
50mil.)
I watched the Chicago Bears lose to the Green Bay
Packers 41-25.
What could Trump do to tank the economy out of
vengeance? What Republicans have done for years. Republicans
have a long history of hurting the economy for political gain, though Trump may
also be driven by spite.

Woman: you live next door.
