I have had a few unique esperiences today that I have the need to share. Zara which is on every street corner in Spain in a Spanish company...DUH? Blue upper lid eye liner is not making a come back so young girls, middle aged women, old ladies and skanky whores in the red light district please stop wearing it....Yuk! I experienced the Spainish night life this Morning literally as I was out and about around 10pm last night. The streets were deserted for the most part but as the clock struck 12midnight it was like a pack of rats abandoning ship as the masses came crawling out of the word work and headed for the bars, drinkng holes and lord now where all else. I guess that traditional afternoon siesta is really a powerful tool to self motivation. The bar I happened to attend which will remain nameless at this time was cranking still at 5am...don't ask me how I know. Note of clarification...No businesses/offices in Spain opens before 10am in themorning and there are some bedraggled individuals on the street at that time or earlier...again I am not taking questions at his time on my knowledge of the bedraggled individulas on the street in the early morning hours...let's just say it was an observation that i may or may not of experienced first hand on several occassions in my not to distant past and/or have vague recall of my younger years and let's leave it at that; shall we.
Speaking of early morning life in the "Red Light District" ...hmmm was I on that topic...OMG the girls as so pretty, I mean they could easily be one of those girls that those scary rednecks get magazines from; for foreign countries to pick out a wife. Augh..what makes it look really ridiculous...they like the spray on tan in Spain and Italy...unfortunately they all look orange, unhealthy and well over sprayed with too much pancake makeup that doesn't match the spray on tan orange, few clothes and bad hair; why is blond with dark roots not a fashion statement...times up no more guesses...Yeah that makes me want to pay to get laid....Not....in this life time. But a girl has gotta make a living...I guess?!?!? It is really hilareous as the street that the ladies of the evening hang out on is right up the street from one of those neighborhood police stations that is in the strip mall...Hookers at one end on sale...Police on the other end hangin out at Dunkin Donuts. Love this City.
Now for my newest line of stories related to Occupy "fill in the city that I currently am residing"...I promise it started as just a nice drink/dinner with a couple of folks that I met at the hostel...and low and behold next thing you know the police have barricaded off the street, there are whistles, drums from at least 10 marching bands doing that really fast drummer beat that they do to get the crowd at the sports games all riled up and then let the political rally of some thousand plus people march right by the restaurant where we are sitting. The restaurant management couldn't have been nicer about accomodating us if it weren't that he and all his staff left the restaurant to go stnad outside to watch the "parade". Needless to say I plan on writing a strongly worded letter to the managemnt of the establishment on the level of their service to their dining guests. So my first step of course will be to take a course in Spanish literature when I get back to the States so the I can be sure to use all the appropriate Spanish words correctly to be able to get my point across. Then of course I will have someone else write it on a old selectric typewriter and mail it after being hermetically sealed in an envelope of which no finger prints can be detected...this sound kind of threatening and I really am just getting to the point that I wanted to make and that is that since all the staff left the restaurant and apparently forgot about us...well....yeah we walked the check. Not walked but the 5 of us ran like school kids, laughing so loud; banging our shins on the table legs and knocking things over to flee that if they wanted to catch us they could have but of course they didn't...even notice we left. So we of course had to follow the rally to Plaza del Sol to listen to the latest rants in a language that only 1 of my companions even understodd but was too drunk on Sangria to comprehend so of course being the only sober one...soberest one, I had to ask and of course got an ear full of the threat to having all school children getting an education and the exhorbetant cost that is deemed unfair to the common man...I'm embellishing a bit because all I really know is that their t-shirts said something about educacion equalization por todo...which I think translates in Engligh to equal education for Dorthy's dog...Toto, probably a mispelling on the hand painted sign. Yeah, I guess you had to be there. But what a fun night.
