Well, I made it here, despite the best efforts of a thunderstorm in Philadelphia. Close to a two hour delay, 90 minutes of which was spent sitting on the plane with a three-year-old screaming at the top of his lungs incessantly. Finally, they put a cork in the kid and we were on our way.
The apartment this summer in Madrid is ok. Not as good as last year's accomodations. Not as clean, not as quiet, and not as close to campus. But it's only 7 weeks, and I can deal with it. As long as I wash the smoke smell out of my stuff as soon as I get home. I'm also keeping my bedroom door shut as much as I can in an attempt to thwart any bad odors, since it is right off the living room.
Yesterday I took the day off of studies, to just relax from the flight and get settled. I unpacked, went shopping to get some essentials (like the electric converter I forgot at home, so I could plug my laptop in). I also bought a fan to help me sleep through the heat, but the weather now is fantastic. It's probably around 65/70 degrees and I am loving it. But I know the heat is coming...
So today, it's off to the grocery store to get some stuff for my little shelf in the fridge. And then I'll be typing notes and doing some serious reading.
