we have been surfing every evening and i would like to think i am doing alright for it being my first five times out. the waves are about thigh to waist high. so last night i'm going about my business being all proud of myself cause i no longer think i am going to die, when i stick my hand in the water to paddle and i feel a patch of sea lice- baby jellyfish- no big deal, but then it wraps completely around my hand. OUCH! i just got stung by a freaking jellyfish.
me and only me..... jeff has been surfing all month never got one, i don't think he has ever been stung.... let me tell you it hurts--- yes mom i'm ok now--- but i do have little welts on my hand, that bastard! oh and i got hit in the arm by the board and i have a big bruise, and one one my hip just from laying on the stupid thing.... and i'm dumb enough to go out again tonight
we get home tomorrow! which i kinda bittersweet... the last few days have been about ninety degrees and gorgeous
but just for fun things i won't miss
totally messed up roads
sand flees, mosquitoes, and everything else that bites
scheduled power outages
weird tasting hard water
the humidity
internet cafes
supers
cartoon maps that don't have any useful info
everything being closed on sundays
our last 'land lady' she was nuts.... but she double booked so we are in another house tonight, not nearly as crazy
and all sorts of other stuff
