so babysitting became so burdensome, there was no avoiding working out.... got such a good deal at a private (not socialist) gym --- can't believe it, only $1 per week first two months then $10 per week next ten months and that includes 24/7 access plus childcare from 9am to midday six days a week --- I'm thinking I should actually pull my kid out of daycare which is considerably more expensive -- sure makes my mornings a lot more fructiferous --- actually burning calories and getting into shape

so anyway, not sure why, but seemed like a good idea to mention some anecdotes from various years in spain, first of all, there was one time in like late 1992 or early 1993, I was 16 years old and attending a kind of tutoring academy after school which was a private business being run by a friend of my aunt (my mom's sister)........ now while I attended a public school which was absolutely the pits due to the lamentable bad luck of the company I had there -- I mean there were three kids about 3 years older than me who were total losers who had repeated various times and they were always harassing me --- I should have just requisitioned a table and chair and sat elsewhere, looking back.......... anyway, the after school academy was a lot more pleasant, for some reason, I can't forget one of the muchachas there, a very buxom and comely young lady, 'un pedazo de muchacha' as they say in spain........ one day, for a laugh I got the idea of tampering with her lighter (everyone over age 15 smokes in spain) so that the flame would be super strong....... then the next week at the academy, I raised the topic with her and her face really 'lit up' as she regaled how her fringe burned off seemingly inexplicably due to the lighter acting up --- then of course she realized I had been the guilty party and actually she was quite delighted by it all

next I was going to mention the folks I sat with in university in the year 1996/97, about four years later, but maybe i'll bring that up again later -- have changed my mind about it since starting this post

talk soon
