Much ado about Erin

I will follow suit with Erin's numbered list approach, as so much happens on this Guaty extravaganza.

1. In response to Erin's getting electrocuted . . . . there were wires attached to the shower head, she was standing in a pile of water, and touching said shower head. After the first shock, she touched it again just to "see." The second shock was accompanied by a scream and, "Courtney come in here! Touch this shower head!"

2. We finally washed our clothes. However, we hung them to dry on clotheslines in a downpour . . . so we are still damp, in another rainy town.

3. While ordering tacos, Erin had a cockroach hanging out on her shoulder. It was huge. After saving her life ( I do this a lot), I laughed a great deal. She continues to spontaneously cringe.

4. We roasted marshmallows over lava. They were pretty excellent, even with the little bits of volcanic rock that came with.

5. We met the most annoying faux-British. This Harry Potter look alike (but nowhere near as cool) is a Virginian, who lived a few years in London and picked up the accent to pick up girls. This accent is believable, but only present 61.7% of the time. He is quite hoity-toity, and while under his British facade uses words like, "bum" and "tele" and "rubbish." Thoughts of him also cause Erin to spontaneously cringe.

6. We shared a romantic candlelit evening while listening to a Guatemalan band that used 6 foot tall pan flutes.

7. We fell in love with a monk, and are contemplating ways to convince him of other career choices . . .

8. Erin is incapable of saying no to children and dogs. This has resulted in her buying a dozen bracelets from every doe eyed child, and using all of my hand sanitizer after touching every doe eyed, flea infested dog. This is probably why a cockroach took kindly to her shoulder.

By the way . . . . you are all getting bracelets as souvenirs.
