Last night's sleep was better. Plugged in... and when I write, "into the matrix," I mean the music. So the volume of the music was higher and I barely heard any snoring at all. I don't remember any dreams however.
It's funny, I think, that my morning entries involve the level of snoring I experience and my quality of sleep. On the other hand, having a roommate is a new experience and as much as I've been thinking that I should, or could be traveling with someone, this experience makes my theory more concrete.
Sleep is important.
The six day programs bring students to the brink... and leaves them almost there. Almost at a breakthrough. Yesterday, which was only the second full day, I notice more confidence in people who were afraid to speak the first day. As days 1 and 6 are on the bus, we have only four days at the hotel.
At this moment it doesn't look like I'll be held over for another week, so I best start planning, (mentally, as well) for the trip back.
Friday, book a hotel in Warsaw and a train to Moscow. That could be frustrating with the sketchy wifi here.
Another new experience is, not unpacking the laptop. No wifi in the room so why bother. I can do what I need to do on my phone. Of course, with the exception of watching the gloomy-doomies. If I really wanted to I could listen on the tablet. I feel like I could be missing something. The world doesn't seem to have ended yesterday (9-11-18), so I'm probably not missing anything.
A Christian, (maybe Catholic) alter along the road.
The Bod is kind of sore, but not terribly so. I can't tell if I'm slimming or not. There's a lot of starch in the diet. It's hard to avoid, but I do my best. I'm not even aiming for paleo... just lower carbs, as usual.
I've been able to do pull ups every day this week, lots of walking and the band work. Pushups this morning and a few here and there throughout the day... maybe.
Walking The Path.
There have been no long walks today. My immediate future is still up in the air. But I don't mind being on the edge.
I'm wondering why I don't embrace Polish the way I embrace Spanish. I think because although I didn't grow up speaking Spanish, I grew up hearing it so my ears/mind is already attuned to Spanish. Polish will take a little longer.
An evening walk down a path and next thing I know I've got tics on me. I think I got them all off. Took a shower and inspection before dinner. Dinner was great, by the way... duck. But I needed more salad and cheese and cold cuts.
Duck for the final meal at 19h:30. Yummy!!
It all started with a beer for dinner and "entertainment" night in the disco basement. Three beers, dancing, aerobics, ping-pong and pool (game) later... I'm playing a confession game.

We weren't up too late. Goodnight.
