getting closer to the final of the Mundial

Actually Elmer and I had a little disagreement Sunday night and I tried to make it up to him Monday morning by fixing breakfast. He was still moody and not very talkative. I took the wash to the laundry place, went for a check-up in the lab. What else have I been up to oh yes bought some books to read in English though, sat in the park for a while ... Got the lab results and no change really so got stronger stuff and hope that will work now and kill the little suckers! When I got home all I wanted to do was nap for a bit and chill instead I got a phone call from Noemy who asked if I could watch Funky for a while since she had to go to the bank and run other errands. It was only than that I found out that Andrea was on a week's vacation which we as evening shifts knew nothing about. Now we also had to fill the morning shifts. I ended up with lots of those for this week. I checked out possibilities to get to Honduras Thursday and return Friday but the shuttle service is just no good to get back in time for work for both of us. So Alex and I have to work something else out. At night Elmer had said that he would go out so I was planning to work on his birthday gift. Instead we went to the gym together and had a very long work out and by the time we were showered and ready to do something. He was like I rather go out with you and grab a bite somewhere. So we ended up in Red's had dinner there and meet some friends there. Pit stop in Reilly's for some drinks and than we went home since I had to get up early Tuesday.

Tuesday, I worked from 8am until 1pm since I wanted to have enough time to find a good spot to watch the game Germany vs. Italy. I ended up staying longer in Funky than planned but had luck finding us a spot to sit in Cafe 2000. It took a while until Elmer showed up since he was busy with other things but hey I had a seat saved. I enjoyed the game and we had our food served in the break which was good timing. The first goal was bad luck but I was hoping that they would manage to get back right away. So the second goal took me by surprise and I was a bit sad that they lost like that. However, I am not such a fan that I will be depressed all day long and cry and rant and rave, gee, have got other things to do as well ... However, lots of people came up to me and told me how sorry they were that we lost. I am trying to remember what we did afterwards oh yes since it was such a long game there was no point in going together to the gym so instead we went grocery shopping; I posted your birthday card, Wuschel!!! We had an ice-cream on the way back since the place where we watched the game was boiling hot. Elmer changed and went to work and I stayed in and took it easy. I had a date with a Norwegian guy that night for dinner. He was all by himself which was a surprise since he usually always has his friends around. He told me that he had to cut his trip short after injuring his hand rather badly. He wanted to protect his expensive camera and managed to cut himself on volcanic rock so since they couldn't stitch it up they glued it - looks wonderful! We tried Frida’s out but I must say not my place, food is pricey and the food isn't that great and neither is the service. We went for a drink in Reilly’s and than called it an early night. I walked back to Funky since I was in time to collect the key to be able to open in the morning. Marcela was surprised to see me and Chad as well. So we chatted and she closed up. I got the key and made a quick round in Monoloco. I bumped there into Alex who I hadn't seen in ages (he gave Chelsea and me the phone) and we had a brief chat. I meet some other people as well but all I wanted was to get out of there - too full for my taste. I bumped into more people in front of Sin Ventura and we ended up chatting. Suddenly some guy was like you are from Germany right. Yes. How long are you staying? For a while, why. Would you like to work for me as a German teacher? After listening to his terms and conditions I don't think so anyway got enough on my plate as it is but it might be an idea along the lines for my next stay. I got home and went after a nice warm shower to bed. I woke up when Elmer was in the room I hadn't even heard the house door opening. I was awake for a second and than gone again.

Wednesday and Thursday only consisted of work since I was working double shifts. I was so beat on Wednesday night that I had my shower and was off to bed. This time I was slightly longer awake when he returned and was able to hold a conversation. Thursday night I just wanted to go dancing since sitting all day is bloody boring. It was pretty full and I had flip-flops on beats me how people can dance in them for me impossible. I preferred dancing barefoot which resulted in very black feet. At home had a shower, washed my feet and off to bed we went.

Friday, had to get up early again. Elmer was like you are working too hard and you should take a rest. Well, I wish but there is no one else right now and yes maybe it is only a job here but those of you who know me know that I am always too responsible and I felt that I had to help out. Wonder if I get an extra from Abby when she gets back. I should get paid on the 15. and I think it should be a nice sum by than. So here I am again, watching TV on silent and writing tickets etc. I hope that Lea gets back on time so that I can get out of here. Today afternoon and at night I will take it easy get lots of sleep. Elmer had yesterday fish and he brought some home for me so that will be dinner tonight for me.

Tomorrow I will go pick up my package at Ema's and Sunday will be my chill day and I will most likely stay at home working on the gift for him and sleeping in and going out for a meal and if the weather is as nice as it was the past days I might sit in the sun and work on my tan o,)))
