Marcus in Spain: What? You're making me go to class?

Yes, classes started this week. Finally. I was really getting used to just kind of hanging out in Seville. I'm taking a class on the history of love literature, hispanoamerican short stories, descriptive linguistics, Andalucian sociolinguistics, and vulgar latin. Come to find out about halfway through this week that I'm taking one class too many, so it looks like I'm dropping vulgar latin.

I caught the last 2 minutes of the Wisconsin game last weekend. Great thing to here!

I don't know if I have talked about my senora's cat yet, and it deserves mentioning. There is a word in Spanish that describes it great: antipatico. Think the greek "pathos", then think the exact opposite. This is Chispi. Petting Chispi is not allowed, it will hiss at you. Sometimes it also just randomly starts mewing very loudly at odd times during the day. But he loves my Spanish brother and likes to play around in his hair...what a strange animal.

I also finally got a camera cord, so here are some pictures that have been missing for a while:
