I'm compiling this list a month early, and the numbers will change exponentially...but you gotta write when it strikes. Inspired by my favorite post of Miriam's during her time in Senegal.
54 dollars in foreign ATM withdrawal fees, even though I am a Citibank customer and went to Citibank ATMs. Bastards.
10 pounds of weight gained. My weight hadn't changed in 9 years.
3 bars of soap used. I only shower every other day. Proud of it.
2 times getting eyebrows shaped.
1 haircut unplanned as usual.
6 metro monthly passes purchased...No shit, Sherlock.
0 items of clothing dropped to the ground while hung to dry out our 3rd floor window.
6 countries visited.
9 visitors from outside of Spain.
3 movies seen at the theater. "La casa de Bernarda Alba," "Hunger Games," and "Take Shelter."
2000 besos exchanged (very conservative estimate). I give and receive on average 8 kisses a day. On high traffic days, it's probably around 20-24.
28 posts written on this blog. A few deleted.
7 pieces of mail received from 6 countries.
3241 pictures snapped digitally.
????? gallons of tinto de verano consumed. Refer to the second indicator listed above.
Total = Constant, at times unbearable, certainly obnoxious, happiness.
