I suppose the humidity finally worked its way in the weather this week as I sit here perspiring as I type.
My neighbor Matt is going to be moving in with me in a few months, making it the third time we have lived together in the past 14 years of meeting.
My friend and I met at an open mic in NYC back in 2009 and have stayed friends ever since. He quit comedy and switched to songs years ago and plays the keyboard now, which is great because I also switched over to music and play the drums and sing. But air conditioning maintenance is how we make our money, mainly doing HVAC duct cleaning and repairs around where we live in our towns! It would be nice to have a seasoned neighbor to connect with as living here overseas can kind of isolate you, especially when you still can’t pick up what people are saying in their local dialect. I’ve been trying to learn the language at the local supplier shop but I suppose I need to get this local contractor to come and supply me with lessons to speed up the pace of learning. I will try to start enjoying films in Spanish only and start studying books as well in the same language. I suppose if I do that, within a year or so I will finally have the language mastered more or less. My Heating and A/C technician neighbor said she can help me learn it if I want, which we can work on while we do a/c repairs in homes around town and in other towns nearby.
