I´m an idiot
Last night, after arriving in Los Arcos, which was a dreadful day for everyone, I ended up making friends with a Spanish family who were on a one week trek together. At one point, the daughter (probably in her 20s) was giving her mother a massage. A Canadian guy came by and said, ¨How about if I give you a massage after you´ve finished massaging her?¨ The spanish woman turns to me (she doesn´t really understand English) and wants to know what he said. I say he is just a typical guy, he only wants the chance to touch a woman (I said `tocar´a woman---some help pls from those of you who know Spanish? I think you can tocar a person or tocar a piano? Anyway, she seemed to understand exactly what I meant)....So here´s the idiot part: she then says to me---how about if I give you a massage after >I´´ve finished with my mohter. You must have had a tiring day¨.....And I respond: thanks, but I think I must decline. I have to go to buy groceries for the trek tomorrow........What a gentleman!....What a loser!

Que lastima... tu eres una idiota...
Of course, this being the far frontier of my Spanish, I cannot toss in any words of reassurance regarding your altogether appropriate gentlemanliness.

This did not happen. Or rather, it did not end the way you describe. No.
Hey, as long as we're studying Latin again, I guess this does bring to mind that lowest grade you said that guy used to assign --won't you tell our readers what your performance would've scored in his book?
