Last night I went to bed at 10pm, got up once during the night, again at 3:30, couldn’t fall back asleep, got up at 4am, read until 4:30, fell asleep on the recliner, returned to bed at 6am, finally getting up with Teresa at 6:15.
I understand Spring started yesterday and I missed it … sort
of.
Teresa is taking her mother to a doctor appointment in Las
Americas. She invited me to meet them for lunch in Arkadia but Teresa and I
will be there tomorrow so I declined.
I left the apt at 8am for my workout in Smartfit and
had no problem entering via the turnstile. Once again it was very busy and I
had to alter my exercise order based on machine availability.
I had a latte in Ganso y Castor. Brit came by and reported
his couch will be delivered this morning. I learned he is on the top (4th)
floor and I recall he has a jacuzzi and a hyperbaric chamber up there.
I finally caught the red squirrel eating a peanut I had placed there minutes before.
You need to zoom in during the first 7 seconds to see it actually eating the peanut.
I left at 10:15 and returned to the apt.
I received our Tigo (Wi-Fi) bill and it’s 259,403
compared to the usual 120,480 pesos. Did I forget to pay another bill last
month? Yeah, I don’t see a receipt for last month. ☹
I deleted a lot of my Yahoo emails.
I left the apt at 12:30 and walked to Clap Burger whose storefront and ordering process has changed once again.
They have “place mat” menus at the window and after I ordered my cheeseburger and Coke they give you a metal stand with your order number on it. I took a seat at an empty table and they soon brought my order to my table. (Strange, they didn’t take the order stand when they brought the order.)The burger was good but next time I’ll get a bottle of Coke
instead of the fountain drink.
I went to Los Portenos where I completed another
group of 12 puzzles while having a latte. Brit came by and reported he received
his couch and was surprised they were able to get it up the stairs.
I left at 4:30 and paid the Tigo/Une bill at the Gana
kiosk on my way back to the apt.
Teresa called about 5:15 and asked if I would meet her at
Wilson’s bar. She called back 15 minutes later and reported that Wilson’s was
too crowded and could we meet at McDonald’s for burgers, not now, she would
call me later. She called at 6:15 and reported she was on her way and I should meet
her there. I dressed, put my bottle of French’s mustard in my tech bag and
walked down to McDonald’s. She arrived about 5 minutes later and
ordered her McNifica combo and I the Quarter Pounder combo. I got extra packets
of ketchup and confirmed they don’t have mustard. I added a little mustard to
my burger as they always seem to be a little dry.
We returned to the apt and I watched some news on MSNBC.
One of the reasons my eyes always seem tired is because they don’t produce enough tears, like 10% of normal, but I recently saw this TV ad for Blink.
I’m guessing Todo Drogas isn’t going to have it but I’ll
pick it up when I’m in Chicago.
