day to day

to explain how timing works here, i thought i'd blog about it! only because timing for skype dates, etc. has been hard. primero, i am 6 hours ahead of US time.. so for example, if it is 12 pm there.. it is 6 pm here. i also wake up and eat breakfast a little later.. therefore lunch is around 2 and then we have siesta! (nap time!) all the stores close and a lot of people leave work just to sleep for an hour or two. awesome right? then everyone gets back to work and dinner is around 9 or so. young people go out around 1 am which sounds crazy.. but since the day is pushed forward it makes sense. then you sleep in, depending on whether it's a week day or weekend and then you start all over again. :) i think the spaniards have figured everything out quite nicely!
