Pam and Ma STILL do Ios!

Hey everybody! Pam and Ma are here still woo! Our second night we were all exhuasted and when one of us suggested we stay in, we all jumped at the chace. We took Pam's laptop to the resort we'd stayed at which has free wireless. Our plan was to download a movie to watch that night from iTunes, but when we got to the hotel, Mike told us that he'd give us a bunch of movies off his harddrive. We were thrilled and after a half an hour of transferring files, etc., we took the laptop back to the apartment to settle in for our movie night. Only when we put the crib together, changed out of our suites and into pajamas and double clicked to watch that new romantic comedy, The Hurt Locker, did we realize our horrible mistake. We had decided against renting a movie from iTunes as well because we had the ones from Mike, which was another thing we put on our bad decisions list. Windows Media Player opened and the visualiser started, set to the audio of The Hurt Locker. The other file that came with it was a frame by frame picture of the movie. Like photosohop. The other three movies were the same. So that sucked.

Last night Sophie and I sadly put Pam and Ma on the bus down to the port so they could leave Ios and begin their journies back to Massachusetts. The village is midway between the beach and the port, and Sophie and I hugged goodbye as the bus pulled up packed with people coming up from the beach to go to the bars. We had brough our trash down to look for public barrels to throw them in, and the four bags sat beside us as we watched our friends board the bus. People getting off kept tripping over our waste and making comments about it, so we edged away from our spot on the stone wall and refused to claim the 10 lbs. of trash until the crowd completely dispersed. Embarassing.

At 1:00 a.m. our two friends rolled back in. Their ferry had been at 7:30, not midnight. Better luck next time, ladies.

Things I've noticed:
1. Our maid defines cleaning the bathroom as spraying the whole roomdown with the hose from our showerhead, and closing the door to let the dungeon ventilate our of a 1' x 1' window.
2. If you order fries at Pleasure, the local gyro place, the bowls they come in make for perfect cereal bowls. So far I've made off with three. I wonder what the employees think when they come to clear the table and there's nothing to clear...

Some Homeless Tendencies We've Developed:
1. Using rinsed out deodorant cups as shot glasses.
2. Using french fry holders as cereal bowls and chaser cups.
4. Taking our morning showers in the mediterranean.
5. Rinsing clothes in our sink. Getting ready makes me feel like Charlize Theron in the beginning of Monster. Only I'm not lesbian serial murderer. Not yet...
6. Freebasing cocaine and battling addictions to Methamphetamines.

The last one is a joke. Or is it? It is.
