Last night I went to bed at 9:45, I think I got up only once during the night, finally waking at 5:30 and getting up at 6am.
The street is wet so we must have had some rain overnight.
I booked my flights with American and chose my seats but at
the payment stage it said because I’m paying with a US credit card I need to
book on their USA site so I had to start over again. I finally got it booked:
Monday, May 22nd to Monday, May 29th for $1223.65.
I left the apt at 9am and walked to the $efecty office in
the Servientrega store on Ave Las Vegas where I paid the Direct TV bill. The
Maca café is now Zibá, a hair salon.
Across the street I had a 5-minute wait for an Envigado bus.
After paying the 2,850-peso (60 cents) fare I took a seat in back near the
door. At McDonald’s the bus got in the left lane to turn up the hill. I
asked the driver if we weren’t going to Viva Envigado and asked to get off. A
couple passengers nicely pointed in the direction of the mall. I knew where it
was, I just didn’t know we weren’t going there. There was something on the windshield
of the bus I didn’t notice.
Since I was already on the correct side of the street I
walked to Metro Sur mall to the Gana kiosk to pay the Tigo/Une bill..
There was a sign by the window pass thru saying they were temporarily closed. I
saw a girl inside with a drink eating an apple. I wasn’t going to wait for her
to finish her break so I walked across the street to Viva Envigado. I made a
small ATM withdrawal then forwarded my American Airline flight email to Auros
for printing.
I stopped at the Exito Wow! desk to ask if I could
pay my Tigo/Une bill there and she wrote down “Oprap de Bancolombia” on a piece
of paper and said, “2nd floor”.
I recycled a couple items then went up to the 2nd
floor and it was at the top of the escalator. There was no line but I
understood from the cashier’s actions that she needed a bar code to scan.
I went downstairs to Urbania for a latte and answered
a few outstanding texts. The wake is going to be Tuesday from 2-8pm and the
memorial will probably be weeks later. I confirmed my son would pick me up at
the airport on Monday and I would stay with him a couple nights before moving
into a hotel. (That’s assuming I get my driver’s license back.) I’m still
trying to get some paper from my ex with my name and previous address on it to
renew my driver’s license. I set up a Monday morning pickup with Bryan for 4am.
☹ I also gave him the pickup
info for when I return.
I googled Tigo/Une hoping I wouldn’t have to go to
Parque Envigado to pay my bill. Google said there is a location at local 262 300’
from where I’m sitting. I paid my bill and walked around the 2nd
floor:
I saw that the Pergamino café is close to opening.
This is what is currently set up in the atrium, a giant
children’s slip n slide.
An interesting dune buggy (?) on display:
I finally found the small office down the metro wing. As I
suspected, it was a place I couldn’t pay my bill but the young man surprised me
by saying, “Western Union”, and pointed in that direction. I paid my bill in Western
Union with no problem but now I wonder if I can pay other bills there.
It was almost 11:30 and I was hungry so I had the medium BBQ
combo at Only Roastbeef.
I returned to the apt by taxi.
I got out my old suitcase from the garage storage unit and
brought it upstairs.
I watched a couple more episodes of Fringe (8.4)
until Teresa returned at 3:30.
It was about 9pm when I noticed it was raining but it had
stopped by the time I went to bed at 9:45.
