Parked in the street while shopping −
And you see that empty parking space, don't you!
And you see that empty parking space, don't you!
Continuing with the theme of yesterday's article, you know you have assimilated in Honduras if you:
- Don't return phone calls because you don't want to spend your minutes.
- Park in the middle of the street because you only need to run into the store for a few things.
- Honk outside neighbors homes to get their attention instead of going to their gate.
- Don't even blink when a gun is fired in front of your house.
- Eat mayonnaise on your hamburgers because it is just too much trouble to ask for mustard.
- Say "Si Dios quiere" (If God wills it) if you aren't sure that you want to commit to something.
- Keep candles and lighters in every room for when the power goes out.
- Keep buckets of water for emergency flushing.
- Carry your own toilet paper at all times.
- Buy a guard dog and a gun.
- Never, ever say "I'm sorry" or "you're welcome."
- Dress up to go to Pizza Hut.
How about it? Do you ex-patriates have anything to add to the list?
