Things going on in Josh´s life:

This past week I was in my second earthquake.  It was measured at 7.9 on that one dude´s scale.  My first one I dont really even count; I was in Alaska and it was less than a second.  But this one lasted for almost 2 minutes.  It was pretty interesting to have the ground moving like it was beneath my feet. 

I am currently sitting in a crappy internet shop holding a prized chitimoiya...no idea how to spell that.  Jesus and I just went to the Mercado to buy some sweet potatoes and while we were there we found some of the delicious fruit that is as we speak perched upon my lap so delicately.  In all honesty I haven't even tried it yet, but Alice says its like candy. I like candy.  It has taken me about five minutes to type this last paragraph because the keys are so flipping dirty. Not sticky, DIRTY.

Point number three.  I am listening to BackStreet Boys.  Not by choice.  Silly peruvians.  No taste in music. ´´my love is all i have to gi-ive, without you i dont think i would li-ive´´  Yes lovely.

Umm.  God is flippin sweet.  He has blessed me so much here in Peru.  His heart to serve others is certainly present.  Everyone here at Little Lambs is such a servant, it blows me away.  And they have such joy.  Pretty humbling when I think about how much I complain about doing the dishes once a day, if that.  Maybe once a week.

Oh Joy.  I guess the proprietors of this here little Internet ´´cafe´´ have blessed my ears...with the BackStreet Boys CD!  That makes you larger than life!

I might be getting to the point of unrest with the extent of my spanish skills.  Speaking in extremely fragmented ´´sentences´´ must be quite annoying for the people listening to me everyday, not to mention for myself.

Well then.
