Really?

<33 Happy Valentines Day! Feliz Dia del Amor y la Amistad! <33


I'm late. I know. Sorry.


Yesterday was interesting. Started off like any other day here. The boy and I made valentines (old school style--construction paper and glitter pens) and planned to just hang out and make dinner together. I had to teach english and we're broke, so no point of planning something big that won't happen. It was lovely.

Our Valentines

 Except for the part of the middle of my day.


I had to drop off some stuff in my town, about 3km away. So I decided I'd use it to work out. I got ready, put on some sunblock and hit the dirt road. Everything was going great. Dropped of the information and decided to take a shortcut to my house. (FYI: walking up hill, in the sun, with cars flying by and dust in your eyes is annoying.)


BIG MISTAKE.


First, I'm walking and this super creepy, old man stops me and starts talking to me (he's in a car) then gets upset because I don't accept a ride from him (you're weird and I don't know you!). Then he makes a comment asking if I'm married/single/living with a family/etc, I tell the truth, I live alone. His face LIGHTS up! Seriously! "ohhh you live alone? I've always wanted to date an American girl!" (Mind you he's like 60...yuck!) I reply, "oh thats nice, I do have a boyfriend...HERE!" He stutters something in his horrible english (I'm speaking to him in spanish mind you) and drives away.


Then I get to the shortcut (walking through farms, etc..this is normal here) and I forgot theres this man with like 70,000 dogs. Seriously theres like 75-80. About 5-6 are out loose. I've met the guy and never had any problems before, but I've always been with other people. Never alone. I am almost bit by 2 dogs. Teeth were 2cm from my calf when this guy comes out and gets them away from me. Then I'm walking and a different dog starts following me. I'm swatting at him like a crazy person with a stick (like thats going to do anything). He keeps following me, growling and barking all crazy like. I turn and start to walk/run faster. Trip over a branch and fall onto rocks. OUCH! My knee is a lovely shade of black, blue and purple today. And it hurts to walk/stand. It's going to be a longggg week.


Stupid dogman and his 70,000 dogs. Next time a shortcut will not be taken alone.


Oh well, life happens. Put some ice on it. haha


Everything else is going pretty well here. Just working and trying to be a good litter "dieter".


I'm supposed to go running/jogging/walking/something with my boyfriends sister tonight. And the eating healthy is going better (except for those M&Ms in my house!).
