I´ve never been much of a "friends" fan, but here I usually wind up watching it while I eat lunch. Last night I had these dream that I was with the whole cast and we were on one of these huge, red, double-decker bus that they have here. And they were talking about how they throw birthday parties for each other. And I was like "hey, joey, you guys never throw me birthday parties." And he was like "you need to be more assertive and demand that we throw you a birthday party." And I was all like aw, man, maybe he´s right. I need to be more assertive. I was also having trouble making all my luggage fit together. I kept reorganizing it and trying to make smaller bags fit into bigger bags, so I was the last person to get off the bus when we stopped. What does it mean? I don´t know. Linda?
Tomorrow, I am here for 6 more weeks. I´m thinking about what I want to make of this time. My brother and I are going to the jungle in a few weeks. And I´m thinking of working in an orphanage in Arequipa, a province like ten hours away, for two weeks.
It´s still freezing cold here at night, but usually hot and sunny in the middle of the day.
I´ve been taking taxis recently, because I need to get from one job to another in thirty minutes during rush hour. Every taxi driver has a different route to get to the same place. Peru: just because you´re making a right-hand turn doesn´t mean you need to get in the right lane. No, you can be in the left lane and just turn right in front of the lane on your right. Very interesting.
