embarrasing or bad valentines day

on my way to school there was a sprinkler. Well there are lots of sprinklers in the parks along the rio that Mileana and I walk along. So I dodged to avoid one and whacked my head on an iron sign. I don´t know what the sign said but I really hit it hard and had some blood on my hand.

How embarrassing. Well not embarrasing. Hopping fury of anger, then embarasment. How can I go to school with a bleeding head. Anyway, Milena didn´t think it was too bad or a scratch so I didn´t worry about it.

Half way through my class though, Wendy got up and left the room and returned with some paper towels. Wendy is a nurse from Holland who noticed my head was bleeding again. So I spent at least half an hour pressing a towel to my head.

Anyway, it´s just a scratch.

But on the way home I stepped in dog poo. Which is embarassing too. Like what´s that smell? and then the embarrasment that my right shoe stepped in something. There are lots of stray dogs here and the attitude is a benevant or tolerant one towards them. People feed them and it is not uncommon to see them waiting for the right chance to cross big highways. But I guess the poo in places too and I must have found out where. Though I don´t remember exactly where.

Some students tried to to go to free salsa lessons, but we got there when they were supposed to start and they didn´t want to start the lessons unless everyone bought a drink first. Thing is is that it came across the wrong way and we weren´t really keen on this forced polite purchase. Figuring if the salsa was good, people would buy just in good faith. So anyway we quit early.

Also I ordered a cheese empanada and got a beef and cheese one. But that wasn´t a big deal.
