daily, odd experiences



Last week I got the ultimate cat-call; here the guys make a kissing noise instead of whistling. I was walking on a busy road when I heard the all too familiar sound. I looked up to see nothing less than a garbage truck pass dropping trash everywhere with three worker guys not much cleaner than the truck hanging off the back. There was my Romeo. Prince Charming himself. There is a salamander living in my room. I was way happy the other day when I saw the ants on my toothbrush BEFORE I put the toothpaste on it. Everyone thinks my eye color is from contacts and the kids say they look like cat eyes. I saw a sixty-year-old woman wearing a Ramones t-shirt.




In other news, I have friends! This is Alejandra. I am pretty sure that the ward girls invite me because I provide good entertainment. I´m like the chinese girl who doesn´t know what´s going on so she just says "yes...okay.." and smiles a ton. We went bowling the other night.

¡Las Cascadas!



Yesterday I went with a group of people to a town called Bucay and we repelled down a waterfall! It was like the Garden of Eden! The gear, although made by Black Diamond, was way past due for retirement...but I couldn´t hardly say no. Wow! Next time I want to do the big falls!
