Oooooh Mexico. I've Never Really Been But I'd sure Like To Go!


The following is a discussion that was held in Mexico a couple of weeks ago. I must preface this with the fact that I was in a bed with Charlie and Alan was in a bed with Sophie. Due to the fact we were in all one room we ALL went to bed between 8:00 and 8:30 each night. Because of this Alan and I often woke up at 1:00 or 2:00 am because we had slept for five or six hours. Please note that the following conversation occurred at about 1:00 am and was conducted with whispers.



S: Pssssssssssst Al?


A: What?


S: Did you hear that?


A: What?


S: There is something moving around in the drapes making noise!


A: WHAT?


S: Ssssssssssssh. listen!


A: Oh Man!



S: I KNOW! Effing nature! (I didn't say effing but you get the gist)


A: Goddammitt!


S: Well Charlie is nearest the curtains and he'll be taken first because he's so small.


A: Ssssssssssssssssh.


S: Oh crap it's on the move again.


A: Maybe it's a coati?


S: or maybe a capybara?


S: No it's not THAT big to be a huge Mexican rodent. It's gotta be small.


Al: Sssssssssssh


FIVE MINUTES LATER


S: Oh god there is is again. I feel like a ninja on defcon 5! I can't sleep.


A: What are you doing?


S: I'm lifting the sheets up so the capybara won't climb up on me!


A: You're an idiot!


S: Yes but safe. Will you switch beds with me?


A: No way man. I'm protecting Sophie. I don't make the rules........


S: Okay, now you're in deep shit because in all horror movies whoever has sex, smokes, drinks or is being MEAN is the first taken. I'm totally safe now.


A: (Laughs)


S: you are so totally screwed now. I will sleep easy.


A: Shut up.


S: g'night sweet!


A: Love you.


No one was abducted or chewed on. The people saw this and thought it was good.
