Yay! Yesterday I finally was able to escape from my daily routine of going to the gym, eating, and watching Miami Vice and get off base. I went to the local mall. Back home, I wouldn't go to the mall just to kill time, but I'm not at home. I'm far, far away eating very bland food at the chow hall.
The local cab company came and picked up myself and my cohort. I was a little unsettled at the lack of usable seatbelts, but real fear didn't start setting in until we really got out on the road at which point the driver was continuously beeping, dodging, and weaving all the way to the mall. Kind of made me wish I'd brought a blindfold--or at least a change of underwear.
Everything at the mall cost like sin. I went to a couple of beauty shops asking for shampoo with sunscreen (in Spanish) and they kept handing me shampoo for frizzy/unruly hair. Not what I asked for, but I took it home and used it and now my hair is behaving a lot better. I don't look like The Flying Nun anymore.
