I was just sitting in my apartment reading a wikipedia entry when I realized I was reading in Spainsh. That's the first time I've read Spanish without thinking "oh man, I'm reading Spanish now." It happens a lot when I'm listening to Spanish, mostly because hearing what people say is sort of impossible to avoid. Maybe some day it'll happen to me when I'm speaking Spanish.
After I realized I was reading in Spanish, it sort of hit me. I'm living in Spain. Actually living in Spain! And as hard as it can be, and as frustrated and lonely as I can get, this is my life right now. Which is really crazy because I'm not sure it hit me until right now that ... I ACTUALLY LIVE IN SPAIN.
More tomorrow on fireworks, etc.
