I agree wth you about Maria. Dude, just saying 'Gerald' is enough to banish her to Africa or something. You should have ignored her or something. And she likes Julio? Hell no.
Good luck with your sleep, be glad no jet lag or anything. Jet lag really sucks... I mean, you get all tired and shit, but can't sleep like a normal person... It gets worse as you get older, y'know? When your seven, you're bouncing off the walls, but you hit about 35 and, bam, you're a tired muthafucker.
Update ASAP!
