and so say we all

Well, they say that santa fe is less than ninety miles away,
And I got time to roll a number and rent a car.
Oh, Albuquerque.

Tomorrow is the first leg of UEFA Euro Liga semi-final, Atletico vs. Liverpool, very possibly the last game i will see at Vicente Calderon. Certainly it is the biggest. Atleti have not won a thing since i arrived here three years ago. They have a chance to win both the Euro League and the Copa del Rey. They are already in the cup final vs. Sevilla, May 19 at Camp Nou in Barcelona. I actually saw Atleti play Liverpool last year in the Champion's League. My mate, Dave, is a big Liverpool fan.

The days go bye and i am in a continual state of exhaustion from starting all these new classes and getting to new places for the first time. I went all the way down to Arganda del Rey, outside of Madrid to the south. Joder! I may have well been in Africa it was so far south. Man, i fucking hate Africa.

My 18:00 class was cancelled. The Internet is slower than shit. I now dislike living in Spain just as much as i ever did living in the USA (lol!). Everything seems worn and gray. So, i guess it's time to hit the road.

Got a two hour class from 20:30 to 22:30.

Then a 3 day intensive next week in Avila. It never ends but it never flows. But i'm thankful for the work.

So I'll stop when I can, find some fried eggs and country ham.
I'll find somewhere where they don't care who I am.
Oh, albuquerque,
Albuquerque.
