My Bucket List

I love those days when you get to check a bunch of things off your bucket list. I think I might just have to expand mine since I'm getting so much of it done here! Since yesterday, i got to cross off:

 1. driving in the back of a pick-up truck on the freeway. The picture: 3 people in the cab of the small truck, four in the truck bed on top of two beds, probably 10 full sized blankets, everyone's suitcases, pillows, the dishes/pots/pans/silverware for the new house. oh! and don't forget the stove we threw in at the last minute. heaven forbid we forget the stove! Then tie it all down with a black tarp so that the cops don't see you. Then add 2 hours. perfect! i think you've got the mental picture.

 2. sweeping the roof of a rather large chicken house/coup thing. We were cleaning it out to start fresh. Why do you sweep the roof? I still have yet to understand this.

3. climbing the equivalent of a cherry tree to pick/eat the fruit. Delicious! mmmmm capuli!

4. sleeping in a double bed with 3 other people. Not as fun as you would think. I might have taken 2 naps today to make up for it...

5. eating guinea pig. tastes like chicken. but doesn't every exotic animal taste that way? It was only slightly disturbing to think that I had one as a pet when i was a child. Though it could have been more economical to eat Snow White than to give her to the guinea pig rescue lady when i decided i didn't want one anymore...

The cuy cooking...

 Me with the head

head --> mouth

And a picture of the crab soup we made the other day just for kicks and giggles!

Yeah, i'd say my fin de semana was a diverse one! But i think all of them are for me. And about my bucket list... I actually don't have one. Generally I just do cool things and pretend that i'm crossing them off of a list. At least it gives me a sense of accomplishment, right?
