I don’t have much to say about today, I slept until 2pm. I guess I was way more tired than I had imagined. I spent the rest of the evening unpacking; yes I have taken this long to unpack. I was at the window dreading the approaching rain clouds… I really do not want to get wet, again. As I was smoking I saw these itty bitty tight rope walkers and thought that would be a great picture for the day. Tonight I will go to another bloco and continue the fortnight of continuous drinking! =)

I spent most of the day working today and felt quite accomplished. Today, when I left home, I made sure to take my camera with me… but I did not see anything worth photographing. I ran to the gas station to pump up and as I was pumping, I had this unsettling sensation that I someone was watching me. I turned my head and BAM! This little critter is just ogling me with an expression on his face that said “Whatcha Doin?” Ladies and gentlemen, meet Moe the Moth. =)
