Friday 16th: Another Day in this Wonderful City --- SARCASTIC.mode.ON

Turn off the alarm. Do my bed. Take a cold shower. Get dressed. And get out! Ran to the beauty-parlor: two women blow-dried my hair in 15 minutes... just perfect.

Now the show takes place...

Crossing the 27th avenue, heading to the Máximo Gómez... I don't even know why!... I called my niñito to ask for the route to the Santo Domingo Hotel. Of course, he told me that the hotel is located in Linconl-Independencia and i realized how freaking stupit i am, when i find myself through the 27th up untill UNIBE so i could take the México avenue back on my way to the Lincoln avenue.

But, oh-oh! My cellphone died during this explaning, because i left my charger at work the day before. I was uncommunicated, plus i had no minutes. Still, there's more to add: i had no gas! I was praying to God not lo leave me in the middles of nowhere!

I looked for a gas-station with an On The Run store. Filled my tank and got back on driving towards the hotel. I had a 2-days seminary there. Fortunately, i was not that late. But, i was so sad, because i could solve everything but that stupit argument i had with my niñito earlier that morning and the day before.

Then, i hit me: i need to be thankful. I have people that care about me. I don't drive to work, because the company provides transportation services to its employees and i don't even have to cross the entire city to get there... Not even close! I don't work on saturdays either! That's in addition to every other blessing i receive from God every single day.

So, let me better learn to be greatful and realize i'm fine as i am. And even if i'm not so fine, things could be so much worse.
