Hey guys, thought I would check in so people know we are still alive.  Today Leah and I began the process of getting our CUIT, which is like a tax number so we can actually be semi-legitimate and find jobs.  This is more for me, by the way, since Leah is already a productive member of society and gives back to the community, whereas I only help the economy by going to the bars.  We had to go to the police station today, where the cops there were surprisingly helpful and friendly. They need to stop by our place tomorrow or Wednesday to make sure we have a legitimate address.  They could be coming at any hour, so I hope I hear the buzzer.  

Apparently that's the easy part, because once we get a certificate from the police, we have to go wait in line for several hours and fill out all these forms, blah blah blah.  I probably would have given up on this long ago, but thankfully Leah has a different mentality than I and is making me go through with all of this.

Um, Saturday night was really fun.  We made new friends at this bar Gibralter.  Some I hope to never see again, including some scary man who told me I should be an actress because I have very expressive eyes.  I tried to express I was going to hit him if he didn't leave me alone, but he didn't get the hint.  Fortunately Leah did and we escaped to another section of the bar where we met a cool guy who took us to our FIRST HIP HOP CLUB!  It was a little intense, with the metal detectors and being patted down for weapons, but they did play 50 cent, Snoop, and even that Tipsy song I loved when I was 18, so I would consider going back.

Other then that, we've become obsessed with couchsurfers.com.  We want to go to Uraguay this weekend or the next, and hope to crash on some complete stranger's couch and have them show us the town. Preferably a rich, good looking stranger, but we could easily settle for some hot guy with a futon.  Hopefully I've sufficiently freaked my parents out with that last comment, hasta luego!
