Adventures on the Combi

Today, a drunk man on the combi (bus-ish) tried to sell us raw meat from a yellow plastic grocery bag that he was carrying. He picked up a slab of raw meat, I believe it was pork of some kind, with his bare hands and asked us how much we would pay for it in the United States. And he was indignant when we were uninterested in his meats for sale via yellow plastic grocery bag. This man actually spoke a good amount of English, but unfortunately had meat pieces on his face and all over his clothes which made me think he might be somewhat unprofessional. I mean usually people selling raw meat on a bus are extremely professional so he’s going to need to step up his game if he’s going to make it in this business. I cannot wait to see what I’m offered next on the combi, although I have a hard time seeing how it could get much better than that.

I’m also existing on a diet of 100% carbs. I’m talkin’ white bread and starch, y’all. This morning mi mama gave me chocolate cake for breakfast. Most of my breakfasts consist of white bread and sugar spread, like literally caramelized sugar and milk made into a spread, it’s delicious but I’m pretty sure my doctor wouldn’t recommend it. I’ve also had milk with oatmeal in it as the drink for quite a few mornings. Nothing like having breakfast and washing it down with a nice glass of oatmeal… Honestly though it’s pretty good, very sweet. But nothing like the way we think of oatmeal back in the US of A (obviously, since they’re using it for a beverage). If it weren’t for the giant hill I have to walk up everyday I’d be in serious trouble. I actually went running for the first time today though and ran so fast and felt like I could run for 60 miles, and honestly I think it’s probably due to all this unitentional serious carbo-loading I’ve been doing. So, I have that going for me. Anyhow, everyday is a new adventure and I seriously can’t wait to see what happens next! Oh also we're going to REAL Lima on Saturday!! I'M SO FRIKKEN PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Besos,
