NObody likes stinky toes, but me

AND

Prep-ing for Departure

today,
got my thymne & nutmeg
to carry-back to-foreign
....wanna make SURE that thymne is dried-out
so that USofA inspectors don't confiscate it

saw @ market
my most-est favorite ginger root
...they had plenty :::: will hold off 'til monday/tuesday to buy some

for some strange reason,
didn't see my cinamon bush
...MUST hunt for that quick quick,,, to dry it out, to clear USofA inspection

Wish I was 50 years younger

'cause those/these Ja-woe-mons
are sooooooooooooo NICE..!!..

* sigh *

*maybe* in my next-life eh

ummmmmmmmmmmmm
with my *luck*
i'll probably come-back as a mosquito or sand flea [[ groan ]]

the down-side... of too-too much time In-Country...


folks *seem* to be
assume-ing that i unna-stand Patois
:-(
i can't speak it ... and i have a HARD-time unna-standing it, most times

Experience has taught me
[[ in my case ]]
that i need to be ON-island IN-country
for at least 3-4 weeks
before i can get the gist of what they're saying to [[or about]] me.

my *new*-thing,
along with telling them to ''..say that again..''
or
''..i don't unna stand..''
is to tell 'em:::>>> '''.. chat to me as if YOU were a 6-Form-Student, please..'''
