Lets begin again like martin luther zen
The mythology begins the begin
Answer me a question I cant itemize
I cant think clearly, look to me for reason
Its not there, I cant even rhyme in the begin
A philanderers tie, a murderers shoe
Example: the finest example is you
Birdie in the hand for lifes rich demand
The insurgency began and you missed it
I looked for it and I found it
Miles standish proud, congratulate me

Back to work. Very stressful finding places for the first time. Always nuts. But i did fine. I just got lost coming home (did the same fucking thing my first day here in January) because it's always a sprint in the morning and you can follow the human traffic to the bus and the Metro. Maite's place is a bit out of the way, but really nice. So sweet of her to hook me up. Cool lady.
Today I taught a president of a banking co., 2 classes at British Telecom, and a class at Ferrovial: the biggest construction company in Madrid.
well you stole it cause i needed the cash
and you killed it because i wanted revenge
well you lied to me cause i asked you to
baby, can we still be friends?

It was a glorious weekend with the Profesora. Really nice. Talented woman.
Teacher wants to see me after school.

I forgot what a croquet mallet to the sac looking for a flat can be. I saw a place today- great people, great locale, shitty place.
Time to get some food, cook, and get to sleep. Me so tired.
I got my pencil

It was great to return the Mural Bar last night. People coming up out of nowhere and hugging me. Maybe I should try and be an ambassador.
Laura and I are looking to share a flat. I think that would work well. But the Spanish can be so obtuse. Someone refused to even show her an apartment today because she doesn't have a job yet (she'll be going to school too - she got accepted to a EU law program and is already a lawyer) and she currently has plenty of money in the bank (more than me!). Obtuse, i say.
That's all. I have no Internet that i can steal today, so who knows when this will post.
I don't feel tardy

Bad Hair Day
The first day to work i couldn't find the crap i put in my hair so i used nothing. My hair frizzed out and i looked like Bon Jovi in the 80's. Nice way to make a first impression.
Magical Mystery Tour
The Profesora is taking me somewhere tomorrow. Not sure where. Diabloita!
She carries me
through days of apathy
she washes over me
she saved my life
in a manner of speaking
when she gave me back
the power to believe

Can never get the Internet when i have time to blog. Sad. Maute's place is nice and new, but out of the way. The bus started running and I had to talk a long walk up a vicious incline past this enormous cemetary. And there's a full moon or at least close. It was beautiful.
Bitches brew! No Internet sucks. And no luck with a flat so far. Oh well. I found out we are going to Avila for the Intensive course.
I saw Laura tonight for the first time since the Return of the Great Scattering. I met her mom too. We went to the Mexican restaurant. It was fun.
11:02 am
The moon was sitting on the horizon like an enormous orange pizza when I caught the bus at 7:20.
Found an Internet cafe and dragged my laptop around with me. Hooray!!! Then time to look for a flat before I have to head north to British Telecom. Tengo sueno (I am tired).
Laura found a place with another woman, so it's just me now back to the flat drawing board.
