some things

busy busy busy except today.
i am so sleepy and my head is achey sleepy, and i just do not know why. i woke up and had energy but i have no energy again, and i have been trying to be energized relaxed.
i saw manu chao last night and danced as hard as i could while bracing myself so i didn't tumble down the declining chairs ahead of me. i loved the demographic of crazy mellow porteno hippies. they had a lot of pretty and funky prints and flowers and bands in their hair.
i am trying to organize my goals while i am so sleepy.
one, i must find out the returning bottles policy. i am really terrible at speaking practical spanish but really good at talking about impractical things. i went there trying to return my bottles as i thought i was supposed to do, but i was supposed to buy a replacement of the same thing in order to do that? it was confusing.
two, i simply cannot figure out my front door. for four days it was easy-breezy, and now it is extremely complicated. sometimes i can open the door to get outside without using the key, sometimes i have to jiggle.
the two above remind me that i still don't know anything despite the fact that i think i have learned it. it is so silly, and sometimes i laugh and sometimes i get really flustered/repetitive and sometimes i get rather upset (namely with the door). i also realized i don't hate commas as much as i thought i did last night. it is an uphill battle.

my mate is beginning to taste better.
i just joined a girls soccer team.
i'm comparing prices for horseback lessons and mime school and sailing and cooking class and trips to uruguay, paraguay, bolivia, chile, peru, bariloche, patagonia, mendoza, cordoba, and la plata.
i did not go to school today, and i wonder if i regret it.
i need to figure out the subtes and where to go to find the bus stop.
i also learned there are really high quality knitting supplies for quite cheap here, and that there is a startling lack of supernatural phenomena.
which reminds me of that place in chile that supposedly is a hotbed for ufo's.
i think i sign up for

there has been a revival of the books in my life as of late, and it is more calming than anyone could know. as well as there being a renassaince of the blog and podcast.

tomorrow i tour the tattoo arcade and pick where i am getting it done.
i'm thinking about buzzing off part of my hair soon to see how much i really like it.
i think i need another nap. i suppose it is rather exhausting to continually try to communicate in a language you previously thought you were good at.
i also need to buy b-52s tickets which are still available.
