HOT

Hey there...just though I´d check in real quick. It´s a little after 3 pm this Saturday afternoon. It is SO hot outside I don´t even know what to do. Luckily I found this little internet cafe that´s semi-airconditioned.
So, my host mom killed a giant scorpion in my bedroom last night. This thing was so creepy. It was bigger than any cockroach I´ve seen down here (which is saying something). I had my umbrella opened in my room so it could dry out and the scorpion had somehow gotten trapped inside it...YUCK. So of course I took lots of pictures of it, then called John and Danica to see what I should do, then sat down and stared at it a little bit more, then finally went and got my host mom. I didn´t know what I was dealing with.
What else...I´ve got another cold/sinus infection. I´m back to using a sweat/snot rag on a regular basis. But I´ve been taking ibuprofen and sudafed to try to get it under control so I can go out tonight. I think we´re going to try to go dancing, so I need to rest up.
I think I´m going to head to the market to do a little shopping. I need some shampoo and conditioner...my 3 month supply finally ran out.
