Last night I went to bed at 10:15, got up once at 2:30, again at 4am, finally waking/getting up at 6:30am.
I left at 7:45 and walked to the mall where I had a simple breakfast in Habia Una Vez for 18,900 pesos.
I recycled a few plastic bottles then went to Auros
where I had my signed voting application (FPCA) scanned to my USB drive.
I tried to make a withdrawal from a Didi ATM but it said, “transaccion
con problemas. Intente luego” aka “try later”. Next to it were two guards, one
with a revolver and the other with a shotgun, both weapons at the ready. I’m
guessing they were waiting for their comrade to arrive with the cash.
I went up to the 2nd floor and made a 2,000,000-peso
withdrawal, starting to accumulate cash for next month’s apt rental payment.
I went down to Urbania where I had a latte while
continuing my Simple Chess book. Teresa arrived at 10:15 and had a yucca
waffle with maple syrup, actually looked more like honey, and a latte.
We went to Home Center where she bought a palo
(handle) for our mop and a new dish drainer for the kitchen sink. We returned
to the apt by taxi.
I’ve been communicating by email with The Athletic
over their monthly withdrawals of $1.99 since my subscription has expired. I
saw online they’ve returned at least one $1.99 payment and hopefully they
won’t continue to make withdrawals in the future. Later I received an email
from Paypal confirming my $1.99 refund.
I watched Anna Cramling playing in the Maia chess open on
Twitch which she won against a 1899 rated player.
At 2:30 I went to Eduardo Madrid where I ordered 6
sesame seed bagels for pickup tomorrow afternoon and had a latte there. I left
at 4:30 and returned to the apt.
Kelley was just leaving from a massage as I entered.
I’m watching video lessons on a variation of the Dutch
defense called The Stonewall Dutch.
FUNNY SIGNS
