November 12, 2009

Thursday

Instead of taking the 4am bus to Riga, I drove mom, Marija, and Nagite to Kuldiga and caught a 10am bus from there.  Marija left us without saying good-bye and mom was very annoyed.  Trakas sievietes!   The bus stank like drunk people who hadn't showered in a month and I was nauseous by the time I got to Riga. 
I checked into the hostel and went to my West Coast Swing class... and decided I'm not going back, because all the teacher knows how to do is criticize.  After feeling like I had not only two left feet, but two left arms and no ears, I went to the bar at the hostel, where I knew people, and wanted a drink before heading home.  Ha.  Got home at 5am and didn't pay for a single drink.  Nice evening. 

Word.............................Lupitas = trashed (as in, very very drunk)
Dish...............................onion bread with cheese
Highlight.........................watching mom blow me kisses as she waved good-bye to me at the bus station.
Lowlight.........................dance class
