Look, Jeannie signs her messages...

Look, Jeannie signs her messages from "yo mama" just like mine does. I wonder where they got that from.
I love looking at the pictures, and the ones of your apartment, too - it looks like a nice setup! Although I sympathize with you on the no central-heating problem. I personally have heat, but also an apartment designed to keep heat out, not in, which is often problematic/expensive. Also having travelled and stayed in the south of Spain, like Andalucia, where they also seem to believe in eternal Spring/summer (ignoring the fact that 40 degrees fahrenheit is not exactly room temperature), i've definitely huddled through a night or two in multiple layers of clothing with an electric heater on full-blast. I also loved th picture of you & co. outside the restaurant! What luck to get free meals! Th emost I get is free tapas from the guy with the mullet who like my roommate at our favorite soccer-match viewing bar. ;)
I miss you, but it looks like your adventure is definitely worthwhile!! we'll talk again soon.
LOVE YOU!!!!!
