I want to start this blog post with something other than, "Today I...," but that isn't really working out.
Today after breakfast my sister headed off to our other grandparents' house to do some work while my mom and I went back downtown to blow some money (or I did). The first two kiosks we went to didn't have tickets, which we thought was stupid, and the guy was really rude at the third one. My mom told him, "I wasn't in Poland for 25 years, but the rudeness hasn't changed at all," before we ran off to catch the fancy tramway that was waiting to leave. We made it. ^-^
A little before we had to get off the tramway, I let an old man take my seat. He gave me a load of compliments that could be summed up in, "You're nice to look at because you don't wear make-up."
...
Creepy old man was creepy. On that note, my grandmother has continued to talk about how nice my legs are.
We went into the Empik in the tunnel under the tracks, where I bought, though I may regret it, a murder mystery. My mom wanted to ask an employee a question, so I had her also ask for me where the English books where. They had several books by Harlan Coben (seriously, half the English books they had--which admittedly wasn't a large number--where by him), so I read the backs of all of them and picked Drop Shot, which seemed the most interesting. No judgements until I finish, though, bro.
Then we walked for a bit. I wanted to go to this souvenier (oh, I can't spell it) shop we'd been to to check the price of a Polska sweatshirt (66 zloty--I didn't buy it), and possibly get some things for friends. My mom thinks I'm stupid for buying gifts for friends. I just...don't get her...buh. I also bought myself a Polska beanie, because why not? 8D
We stopped by some other places, and also walked along the amber-selling street, where I got my mom to buy me a little pendant in the shape of a pig. Not amber, but cute and inexpensive.
After we got off the tramway (another of the newest ones, with the AC actually on), we bought some things from the bakery as well as raspberries and tomatoes from a stand. Then we ate lunch and called my sister, who came over and the three of us went to the beach. It wasn't really beach weather, but we walked for a while and then they sat and I built a sandcastle and then we went home.
On the way back we bought some pastries from another bakery and my mom bought some candy to try so she'd know what to buy tomorrow and we bought mint tea and then we came home.
Before supper, my grandmother's friend and her fifteen-year-old granddaughter came over. My sister and I talked with the girl for a bit before they left and then we ate.
This blog post is super exciting, I know.
Tomorrow is supposed to be hot and sunny, so we're planning to hit the beach and then sightsee in Sopot at 4 with my sister's godmother's mother like we had planned when we went to see her.
Cool story, bro.

I think Blitzle is dubbed as such because the German word for "lightning" is "blitz."
