Not much has been up in Spain the last couple days. I´ve been going to practice and class and driving the kids around and eating of course. I´ve also been hunting this little bird that pirches on the window sill when I´m on the computer. Dave was wondering what types of birds and bugs we have over here and I keep trying to get a pic of this bird and it always flies away.
As far as basket goes, the team is now talking to the German Embassy to see if I have enough german blood to play in games. Remember the older guy who I talked to to start playing on the team, Yuso? Well, I saw him again last night and it was weird. He´s always grabbing my neck or putting his arm around me. Maybe it´s just my American bubble of space, but I´m weirded out. We´re going to start a language share on Monday mornings, during which he will stay on his side of the table at all times.
Next week is a holiday for half the week. I say it´s for my birthday, but the Spanish say it´s for some other important thing, whatever. I get Thursday-Sunday off, so I´m going to try and fly to Bonn, Germany to see Liz play a little German ball. I´m sure we´ll eat lots of sausages and drink lots of beer too. I can´t wait! It´ll be so nice to see a friendly face on my birthday! I hope it works out.
Class is about the same. I´m staying home this weekend while the family is in France to catch up on studying and try to go do a language share with Lourdes. A girl from my Spanish class, Annika, and I are going to a movie Sunday as well. A Spanish movie and we´ll speak in Spanish. She´s German and has a little german accent in Spanish and English. Charming. I also plan on exploring downtown a bit more and to go to the bus station and check out schedules for weekend trips.
Louise and i are meeting Catherine and the older son, Max, for Chinese in a few, so I better run. I´m enjoying my time here, but I miss all the little things from home too. Say hello to Portland for me!
