This Week

Here are just a few highlights from this past week.

I saw an abandoned car with goats in it and when I say 'in it' I mean there were no windows and the goats were standing in the seats of the car. Of course there wasn't a chance to get a picture.

Then there was that bowl full of fried chicken heads, beaks, eyeballs and all. No bodies, just the heads. Chicken heads, really? Where did that come from? Some guy goes to get a snack and he's like 'I think I want some fried chicken, but I'm not so hungry. I just want a little snack, maybe something smaller than a wing. Can you just chop the head off? That's really all I want.'

We're going to have to do something about the walls to our compound. The construction guys from next door keep dropping things from the 4th floor of their building over into our yard (like entire 2x4s and whole bricks, things like that) and then they just hop over and get them back. That's really getting old and we've realized just how easy it is for people to hop on over whenever they feel like it so we're going to do something. My suggestion? Cement shards of broken glass to the top of the wall. A little tacky but much easier than most other solutions and cheaper. There's plenty of broken glass out in the street and they let you pick that up for free!

And I officially have tickets out of here. It's the strangest feeling, hard to describe so I won't even try.

I think I'm running out of things to blog about. I've been here so long, too long really, so that most of the things that would sound strange to y'all have become completely normal to me.
