I woke up. No progress on my computer. Looks like I have a date with an IT guy tomorrow. I went across the street and checked emails and Facebook and stuff. I was able to talk to Abbey for a bit which was nice. I then read the rest of Seven Madmen, which I really liked and want to read the sequel, if I can find it in English. I then went to get lunch. After lunch, I walked around a ferria. I considered buying a shirt but I wasn´t sure how it would look on me so I need a partner in crime to give me opinions. I also saw some nice dress pants which I think I am going to buy since I want some nice pants so I can have a nice night out here. After coming home, I did my Spanish homework before writing my portion of a presentation about Seven Madmen.
I was able to talk to Abbey some more as well as Meaghan and my mom and brother, whose birthday it is. It was nice to talk about random stuff. I also communicated with my doctor who made it seem that I am really close to getting my remicade treatment which is a good thing. Throughout this process, there was a crazy store of a flash floods, lighting and hail but it only lasted like thirty minutes or so.
Plan for tomorrow, wake up, eat breakfast (if I am up in time), go to the hostel, find out when the guy can come look at my computer, depending on when he can come I will eat lunch and also maybe go to class if his coming doesn´t conflict with it but I am not sure, then eat dinner and do homework. I hope to have a working computer tomorrow.
63.5 days till home. 74.5 days until my birthday.
My life and travels through mine and others words, pictures, movies and music.

The Never Ending War with Technology....
4-17-10
Today, I woke up and checked up on my computer. No progress. This is frustrating. Due to that, I went to the computer room in the residencia across the street. There, I checked emails, facebook etc. I got a facebook message from my 11th grade math teacher, Mr. Robertson. Him and his family are moving back to Seattle so we might catch up over the summer which would be cool. After, I left this computer, I tried another scan but alas no change. Whatever is in my computer, is in deep. The pro is that it forces me to be more focused on work. The con is that I need my computer for work coming up. Looks like I will be using one of the computers across the street or in an internet cafe tomorrow to type something up. I read a good portion of the book for literature. After reaching a stopping point, I grabbed some empanadas for lunch. After, I read more before reaching another stopping point.
I walked the four blocks to my hostel here, where the ladies who still remember me told me that if I came on Monday, the guy can look at it. UGH. I tried to download some software to try to solve the problem. But one required my computer to update some stuff which it couldn't due since to make it work, I have to keep my computer in safe mode, but that means no internet. So it looks like I am stuck without my computer until Monday. Booo. The never ending battle with technology continues. 65 days till I am home, 76 until my birthday which means a new and much needed computer. I will continue to read for a bit more before I am going out to meet up with some of my friends from my trip to Mendoza.
So I guess, the best way to reach me is via email at the moment or facebook. :(. Hopefully it can be fixed on Monday.
Mom, I guess for skyping for Nick's birthday tomorrow, email me a time that works and I can either ask one of my friends to borrow their computer for like ten or so minutes or go to a internet cafe.
