It's raining!

I am currently sitting on the couch of my new apartment, listening to Billie Holiday, Bonga, and other appeasing classics, recovering from an amount of piscola that i cannot recall. Piscola is a combination of Pisco(the local alcohol) and coca-cola. It is a common Chilean drink, known specifically for its efficiency in getting you very drunk, very fast. As you may already know - you probably don't actually - Chile won the Copa America last night, beating Argentina in penalty kicks and achieving the first Chilean victory in History. Rolando, and his Chilean friends were overwhelmed with joy, they watched the match events over and over again, drinking piscola, and shouting from the balcony "Vamos Chile!" and "Chi! Chi! Chi! Le! Le! Le!" to passersby who answered with the same chants. I joined in the enthusiasm as much as I could, Rolando gave me a Chile T-shirt to wear ,I now know half the words of the traditional Chilean Football chant, and of course, I drank piscola.

It's raining for the first in 4 months today, as if even the weather is celebrating the victory. Somehow the rain is a perfect weather for this Sunday, it suits the emptiness of this hungover city.

Tomorrow I start working again, get back into the rhythm, I expect that they will give me work this week, because last week, all I did was invent my own work and try to look productive.

I'll finish on that note as I need to go back to doing nothing.
