Rain and library cards

It´s been raining for 4 days. It hadn´t rained in like 6 months though so it´s for the better. We´ve had something like 100 liters per square meter which I have no idea how compares to inches which isn´t that how we measure in the States rainfall? Confused by that last sentence?

I have three library cards. Two in the States (Maryland - Worcester County and Pennsylvania - Chester County) and one here, one library card here in Spain. My penalties-for-late-materials-return history is pretty clean...my libary rap sheet is nearly blank...or at least it was until I got here to Spain. I´ve returned materials late here a couple times but the worst part is that they´ve been REALLY late. The first time I returned mats late I thought that the library was just really forgiving because there was no fee and SEEMED to be NO penalty whatsoever for the late return. No one said anything to me. I told the man that my mats were really late. He smiled and said, Thank you. Hohohold on. Wait a minute. If only I knew what was hiding behind that smile. I returned a few days later to find that I´d lost my borrowing privileges for number-of-items X number-of-days-late. In the end I couldn´t borrow for three weeks. Whammy! I couldn´t use the computers either. Double whammy!

It´s 4:15 PM and Jerez is starting to wake up from the siesta. Gotta go to town and do all the things I couldn´t do for the last 2 hours.
