Tired of present tense? I was...

After you've spoken for a while, you'll get tired of present tense. Quiero tomar algo. No tengo unas aceitunas.

At some point, you want to revel in the past or the future. So here's something I learned today.

Estaba = first or third person form of estar
Estoy adentro de mi casa -
I am in my house
Estaba adentro de mi casa -
I was in my house

Conjugation covers a lot of ground, and it's difficult to learn just by reading the rules...as I struggle to learn it, I will certainly pass on what I learn.
