accidentees

Last night i had the most fun iapos;ve had in a long time. Ignacio took me to a party and he got hilariously drunk, losing many of his clothings in the process. His friend drove us home with a couple other people and ignacio was practically nestled in my bosom saying that he wanted to throw up, but that we had to find a nice place for him to throw up in. We stopped at a light and he was like "ok iapos;m going to throw up here" and i got out of the car with him and he ran into the middle of the street and said that he didnapos;t have to throw up. We were only a five minute walk from home so i decided to just walk him the rest of the way, but i forgot that his pants were ripped open from crotch to knee and that maybe it would be better to drive him to the door. Luckily his friend followed us and picked us up in a few blocks. And that was just after the party...
besides hilarity re: ignacio, we danced and i talked to some people and people took a lot of pictures. Apparently peruvians are OBSESSED with taking pictures; every party iapos;ve been to here has people spending half the time posing. I met a really cute guy, a friend of ignacioapos;s called jose carlos. He left early but i got to talk to him for a little while. All in all it was really nice because iapos;m getting to know these people better and large groups of spanish speakers are starting to terrify me less.
also, last night i met my friendapos;s mom whoapos;s here visiting. My friend being one of the girls on the program. Her nameapos;s miriam. It was sweet because 1. Miriamapos;s mom is as awesome as she is and 2. Itapos;s always nice to have a mom around.
so last night was great. But then this morning i was supposed to go to some museums with miriam and her mom but owing to a series of confusions, a broken cell phone that i bought four days ago, mean taxi drivers, and my inability to navigate parts of Lima that Iapos;ve never been to, i ended up spending 20 soles without getting to any museums or seeing any friends or moms. Then when i got home i was filling ignacio in on the details of how he got home last night, which was fun because he didnapos;t remember a thing after leaving, when his mom had a seizure. Itapos;s not uncommon for her to have them - she had a stroke last year, so her healthapos;s not great - but it was scary as hell and i didnapos;t know what to do. I stayed in my room for about ten minutes, not knowing if i should go out and see her or if she was still sick or what, but then i felt horrible because her family had taken such good care of me when i was sick and i was too much of a pussy to go across the hall. So i went and gave her kisses and sat with the family for a little while. It was scary, she seemed really weak, but after an hour or so she already seemed back to normal. Then again, normal for her is walking and talking slowly and being partly paralyzed.

so thatapos;s just a particularly exciting 24 hours that recently happened.
