| Cancun - Day 4 |
| Wednesday. Cashing in a marathon sleep, Josh and I got a late start in the p.m. to the day. After a 5 star lunch, we caught some sunrays and listened to our respective ipods. Josh, that kid can eat. After about an hour we both felt it was fair to let the rest of Cancun get some sun so we made our way to the snack bar. While we were eating a hamburger, they were taking down the volleyball net, to make way for a soccer game. We must have watched for about 25 minutes before I decided I wanted to have a go. I've got a buggered stomach and am in for surgery next month, but if you've ever seen Charlie and the Chocolate factory you'll know what I'm talking about: After having candy waved in your face your whole life, there becomes a point where you just have to have one. Either you wind up with toffee stuck in your braces, or you start the biggest chocholate factory in the world. Either way, I was into the soccer, and although sore, my body was holding out. It was alot of fun. Must have played for a couple hours, by the time I was too stuffed and tripping over the ball. I went over the top of my inside two toes on my left foot about middway. I knew I had gone over, but I didn't feel it at the time. After the game was over though I knew it was buggered, and the top of my second toe was bruised on the top. Drag a leg sticker, here I am. We probably swam for an hour after that. Josh and I doing underwater laps. Fun. I said it. Outside enjoying a Corona with some people that we met, I found myself telling alot of bad jokes, nick's jokes, ricies. Josh, I couldn't tell what kind of night he was in for. It was the mindbender that is for sure. We went inside after the outside area shut down. Josh and I played a game of pool on the Fischer-Price table, and enjoy some yawns with a loony tunes European. I hustled Josh, and he figured he could take me. I told him to rack them, and he said yep, as long as I don't mind if he plays with his cane. I gave him a super funny, and long look, before saying yep. He was terrible with the Cane, and before the game was finished Josh was back with a pizza, and I couldn't be stuffed playing him anymore. We sat down in the lobby, and the Pizza was terrible. I remember saying that it smelt like dog or something. Now if it was a chicken pizza, and we were in Korea, that might have made sense to me; cheese and in Cancun - Terrible. Next thing I know the Couple that we had been spinning yawns with before are in our face and fighting over a pack of smokes. I think Josh and I both ricied them, but when she fell on the floor, I was easily thinking wtf, and questioning the situation. She said that she didn't trust going to her room alone to get her own pack of smokes, so she asked that we would go with her. I was game if Josh was. So we walked up. Second Floor, and next thing I know they're still going at it in the Hotel Room, where her son and girlfriend are sleeping. This deserves a wtf again, and I told the kids they should get out, and got the mom and her boyfriend to seperate as well. It was full out Jerry Springer style and I was into it. Josh is a better witness of time then I was, but what felt like 10 minutes wound up being an hour, and she was just was unloading information left right and central. She was obviously a little bit loony tunes, as was her boyfriend, and you might even sign me up in that category as well. All I wanted her to realize that no matter who was doing what, or what the past was, all that she had was today, and if he's the one at fault, or she is, the choice is pretty black and white. Josh left the scene about 10 minutes before the boxing gloves came out. I left the room shortly after Josh did, and was outside sitting on a bench, partly trying to put my thoughts and the situation together. I spun yawns with a few british guys I'd met the day before, and told them what was going on, and I didn't know what was going to happen. The two kids came out and I talked with them for a minute. I just told them, I'm sorry, and that I was only kicking because I wanted them to be alright. All of a sudden the door to their room bursts open, and Daniel the mom's boyfriend rages out and says to me "You think I'm going to hurt them", I knew my words had been twisted and things were going awry so I made a bolt down the hallway. Jerry's got a respectable set of wheels when he needs them. I knew that everything from the pack of smokes at the beginning to being their at the end had been blown out of proportion, and it would be sweet the next day. It was. A sore foot, sore hamstrings, and now arms - Wednesday Polished. |
