Today is Sunday. I awoke at 8:30am, got ready for church, packed my bags, and left with our friends to go to their church. The service was in Spanish and I understood about 80% of it until about half way through and I was just too tired to pay attention. Then I basically stopped trying and didn't understand more than 10%. I hit the wall. There's only so much Spanish my mind can handle on too little sleep. Then there was Sunday School. Also in Spanish, but the teacher spoke much more slowly (although with a thicker accent) and I understood about 70% of it (when I was trying). My friend dropped me off at the big conference hall where we will be meeting all week and I got to work helping with the setup. We took a break for lunch and continued with the setup for about 4 more hours. Then, everything was done and we had the evening to ourselves. We're basically all staying in the same hotel, so we rode the metro to the hotel together and checked in. My roomate is a great gal from Kansas. She's been coming to the WWW conferences for years, but I didn't meet her at the last one because there was a devastating hurricane in Kansas right before the conference. Several of us hung out for awhile and then went to a store to buy food for breakfast. I returned to the room for a light dinner and some time on the internet to write my update for the past few days. The internet wasn't working, so I just wrote the update so I can send it from the conference hall tomorrow. Now I'm ready for bed and it's barely 10pm. The week is looking up! Hopefully I'll be getting more sleep than I have for the past few days!
