Hey Guys,
It's been a little while and I can make all kinds of excuses about holidays and responsibilities or I could even come up with an emotional appeal to you and say that re-living all of these traumatic partying moments from my life in Barcelona was just too overwhelming, but the truth is I just got a bit distracted, but I wanted to get you updated on what's going on and maybe some of my insight on Barcelona will be helpful or maybe it won't.

I think I left you with Gretchen and I at CDLC in Porto Olimpico. The club closed around five and all the Irish guys we're put in cabs and sent back to their hotels. Being that she lived near the club we took a little walk to help clear some of the smoke from our lungs. My eyes were heavy, I hadn't been in Barcelona but a couple of days and I wasn't quite adjusted to the time. I was ready to crash out and had no desire to watch the sunrise. Gretchen on the other had was wired and talking like she was in some kind of competition to get the most words out of her mouth before the day break. It was a good pairing as I couldn't muster the energy to talk and I didn't have to remember what she was saying as she wouldn't remember it herself the following day.

At some point we ended up on her couch, she poured us two glasses of Cava, I was more than ready to crash, but I didn't want to be rude. I figured I'd drink the glass and then politely excuse myself. After a few minutes she said, "You don't find me attractive." Now, you've got to realize I've known this woman all of a few days and she's starting to have a cocaine induced attack of insecurity.
"I think you're very attractive, but I should go to bed. I'm just exhausted."
"But, I'm not your type." She moved closer as if she wanted me to reassure her, as if she were looking for validation.
"I can't give it to you." I muttered to myself
"What?" she buried her head in her glass of Cava, eyes glazed over, but still fully awake, her cigarette smoked in a steel ashtray on the coffee table.
"Nothing Gretchen, I have to go to bed. Goodnight."
