Ecuador!!!!!!!

Yeah! I'm in the port of Guayaquil (pronounciation, anyone?) at the moment and I'm quite literally less than one degree south of the equator. Life is still all goodness on board the ship. I played the two remaining production shows last week, and it all went without a hitch. The page turns are going to be a potential problem, though. Some of the charts are 20 pages long, each. But whatever, I'll deal with it.



I bought myself a camera the other day which, in itself, is not news at all... BUT!!! There's ALWAYS a BUT!!!



Picture this, if you would!



I'm in an electronic appliance store. The name of that particular store rhymes with Lady-o-smack. I pointed out a nice little grey sony camera to the young lady who was assisting me that cost around 130 dollars. Soooo.... the young lady goes to the back of the store and gets a box and hands it to me after we complete the transaction. Once I get back on the ship, I start unpacking the box to take my new toy for a test drive... Lo and behold. It's PINK... PINK, I tell you! Not even the kind of pink that can kinda seems like another color when the lights hits it just right. It's JUST PINK! Now to all you lovers of the color PINK, I'm not saying it's a BAD color. I'm just saying it's NOT my color... AT ALL! Why, oh, why did it have to be the one color that I really REALLY REEEEEEAAAAAALLLYYYYY didn't want it to be... It was one of those moments where you kinda just roll your eyes and say "AAAawwww NUTS!!" But I didn't say nuts... it was worse than that.



So the moral of this story is: Don't play drunken volleyball in the kitchen cause you'll sink the glass bust of Julius Ceasar that's hanging upside-down on the floor*.



This message was brought to you by the color PINK. Vaginas are pink... that's the extent of the good pinks in the world.



Oh! And merry christmas to you all. God bless us, everyone *cough, cough*

*Yes! You CAN hang from the floor if the whole room is flipped over. Suck it! HAH!

Heill þér!
Þú ert náttúrulega ekkert annað en snillingur.
Kveðja, Þorri

Takk Þorri minn. Ég vissi reyndar að ég væri snillingur. En ég er ekki lögga... ekki þú heldur reyndar, en þú ert nærri því en ég... talandi um eyrnapinna, ég var að taka eftir blóðslettum á lyklaborðinu mínu... later.
