New couch
Today I bought a couch for my apartment, which doesn't have a true couch (it's more like a day bed, and it's not very comfortable to sit on). It cost about $120 plus $15 for delivery. It arrives next Thursday.
Today I say for the first time the double-decker train that people have told me about. The train cars two-storey and have air conditioning, which most of the trains don't have. I take the train to work everyday, so I'm sure I'll get a chance to ride in one of the new trains someday.
A few days ago I started reading the latest Harry Potter book in Spanish. At 600 pages, it will take me a few weeks to read. At this point I understand everything I read except for an occasional word. Now if I could just understand spoken Spanish that well....

Can you imagine anyone in the US delivering a couch for only $15?! Are you letting Todd sit on it?
Jix, is 'practice makes perfect' coined in Mexico/Spanish? :-)
I'm impressed Paul that you are understanding so much of what you read in Spanish...though I am less impressed with your choice of reading.
