That's what I get

Last Thursday I went out with a group of French kids and their Colombian friends to a club that was offering a free bottle of Colombian booze Aguardiente to every group of five people. As you might imagine, after a pre-party of rum and coke, this turned into a ridiculous evening of dancing and fighting. Well, the dancing part was fun, but then at like 3am when we left, some guys got into a fight. Supposedly over a bottle of whiskey. One guy got his head kicked against a light pole, and the police intervened with their helmets, which was really useful. Fortunately I was not involved at all, but it sure cast a pall on the evening. I ended up going to sleep at 4:30am then getting up at 8:30 the next morning, which was really stupid in retrospect, and unpleasant during the interview that afternoon. And then I was in a crappy mood for the rest of the weekend.

The five hour meeting this morning didn't help much either, and neither has the busted wireless router that I'm going to have to try to get replaced tomorrow. I'm not terribly confident in the warranty they gave me, but we'll see how it goes. It's times like this that I'm annoyed at the Third World.

But then again, all the pollution makes for beautiful sunsets. See below for a view out our window. I like how the building matches the sky.
