* Last night slept on the beach: sticky , sweaty and all tha jazz. Came home this afternoon in desperate need of a shower. Went to the bathroom, stripped, got in the tub and wadyoo know:
NO WATER!
Got a towel, wrapped it round myself and stayed like that for 2 hours planning my next move.
Check in a hotel ?
Go over to friend's place?
Shower - Africa style ?
Just when I was about to call the taxi and head to a hotel, I really didn't want to contaminate my clean underwear and freshly washed clothes. Hell I wasn't about to go to a hotel talk to the receptionist without having brushed my teeth. Walked over to the kitchen sink to see if I'm lucky and wadyoo know there's water! Head back to the toilet and - Nada!
Hmm so what do we have here ?
4 buckets, on the floor and 4 pots on the stove boiling water = Manual Shower.
I think this is as clean as I've even been.
Not true, but pretty darn close.* The other day I was thinkin wow this is the first apartment I keep for more than a year but - subconciously I was workin against myself, later that afternoon went furniture shopping. After buyin the extra sofa, bookshelf and desk I realized I need wanted a bigger place. Not just that - I wanted 2 living rooms.
* My biggest fear (exaggeration? I think so!) is that once I'm done here I wont want to go back. Granted I can extend my stay for another 5 years, not like I'm leavin tomorrow but what happens if I don't want to go back? Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
* New year's resolution - yes for all those who don't know me I start my new year every September not January. And not really resolutions, just 'to see' list:
- Barcelona, Granada, Valencia.
- Dublin
- Iceland* When I was back home there was this gathering my friend hand and although I'm not a formal mofo I actually went and met all these new people. One of them said the strangest thing to me " 7adich tha3fana "
So I'm there like excuse me ? Have you seen me before ? She was like 'no bs yibayin inich tha3fana' .

Dude you can't say that! Why couldn't she see that ! Its like me meeting a guy for the first time and sayin "Umbaih Mi7law!"
Number 1 : I'm not one to say 'umbaih"
Number 1 : I'm not one to say 'umbaih"
Number 2: Mi7law, tha3fana, mijkara, samnana, are based on a prior/initial description/puckerityphuck.
Number 3: Sharap, will ya!
