in one sentence, what happened
So - my embarrassing happening of the day was getting out of a packed, rush-hour chapa and the top two buttons of my lovely pink collared shirt had become unbuttoned but I didn't know this so I squeezed past everyone then turned back around again to grab my unwieldy red backpack and effectively flashed the entire back row from about 4 inches away (four people grinning enormously, though I didn't know why), then turned to jump down out of the chapa, flashing the guy who collects the 5 metacais for riding, and then again turning one last time to cross the street, flashing all the remaining 18 people on the chapa who hadn't yet seen my uninspiring white Hanes bra and the top of my belly-button.
Excellent.

Flashing folks in the Moz. . . classic. Thanks for making me smile. And, then, I continued reading your blog (was I really that behind?) and I wanted to hug you. I am not experiencing death, illness- I am experiencing poverty and frustration. . . and the "I want to cry/throw up/run until I can't think anymore."
I can think of nothing else to say- except I love you and I remember you in my prayers, sister.

ahhhh you make me laugh =).
one of my study abroad professors in Spain would have called that a "cultural exchange". i admit, he was a little odd.
