hoy

hoy está un muy nublado dia con lluvia y frio. i doubt i said that right.
today is a very cloudy day with rain and cold. i doubt i said that right. :-)

i'm on my way to the tourism police to file a "complain" or whatever about my theft situation. but it started raining pretty good when i reached the school, so i decided to take cover for a few minutes. it's been off and on all day now.

the tourism police won't be able to do anything, but at least it'll be on file that i told someone official. the guy has long since thrown my wallet, cards, and license into the trash or street or who knows where by now, especially since after 2 p.m. yesterday he couldn't use the cards anymore. so the police can't find my license, but they could certainly try to find him and at least yell at him. that is if the school was at all helpful in providing his name. but i doubt that will happen. they don't seem to concerned or apologetic about the situation. my teacher and host dad care, but that's about it. the officials here just said "oh". that didn't help my feelings at all.

lunch today was with Suzanne and Jackie and contained edibles like mashed potatoes, stirfry steak and veggies in brown gravy, and tortillas. Anna's parents were over too and i talked a little bit with her dad. he corrected me a lot, but was nice about it. he knows pretty good english for being older ... i am surprised at that (don't know why). her mom is really quiet and doesn't talk to anyone. they have a prayer meeting every other friday in the garage, so the mom finished doing all the dishes she prepared the garage for that, the dad sat on the couch and did the crossword puzzle out of the paper, Adolfo, Suzanne, and Jackie left (but not together), and Anna went upstairs to get dressed. i sat on the couch and conjugated present tense irregular verbs. when i was finished, the dad asked to see my work, evaluated it, and declared it "perfecto". :-)
