From talking to some friends recently I realized that I have come to accept and find normal certain aspects of my life, that 9 months ago I definitely wouldn't have. Some of these I may have mentioned or you may have already heard, but I hope it gives you some insight into my life. I also hope you don't think I am really gross.
There are a stream of ants crawling on my wall, maybe I pull out the bug spray to get rid of them, but since its the rainy season now, its more likely that I do absolutely nothing. Ants in my sugar, bread, water, honey, or whatever other food they got in to, no problem ants don't taste like anything, and if you ask a Lucian they are good for your brain. I eat my ants with every meal. Finding a cockroach belly up is a happy moment cause it means that are dead or close to it, no need to get the shoe.
I just swept my floor, thats barely any exercise, so why is it that I am dripping, no pouring sweat from my entire body. My fan clearly isn't doing a good enough job at keeping me cool, its ok though because my fan in my new lover, I love it even when it lets me down. I defintely choose to ignore the Lucian warning that sleeping with a fan on you during the night will make you sick, its all lies I tell you.
After my nice sweeping workout, I go to take a nice shower, what no water today, its okay I have my perfect one bath bottle set aside already. All it takes to get so fresh and so clean now a days is 1.5 liters, maybe less.
Now that I'm clean its time to greet the world, I open my door and find roosters and chickens running around, sometimes they are even so bold to come on my porch, o there goes a goat/lamb walking up the road. Shortly after I am greated by children calling miss miss, sometimes followed by the question when are we going to play the game, this is how the refer to monopoly. If I'm sitting on my step, everyone that passes says good morning or good afternoon, maybe even asks how the heat or the rain is treating me. If they are a friend they take time to chat, remember nobody is ever in a hury anywhere so they always have time to say hello.
As I return home there is a pile of stuff on my balcony quickly the neighborhood children inform me that some person came by and left fruit for me because I wasn't there. The kids always know what happens at my house because as I've been told and witnessed they come and play on my porch waiting for me to come home and talk to them. No these are not my children, I don't even work with these children at the school, they just live near me and stop by all the time. Sometimes we make things together, which is nice because pretty much anything we make together they think is really nice, it may turn out absolutely horribly but they still say Miss its really nice.
This doesn't even begin to cover the complete randomness my life can be sometimes, this is literally just the normal weekly happenings.
