parched and filthy thursday
There isn't any running water in Yucalpeten, Progreso today and no one else seems to mind. I see people jogging past the house - surely working up a sweat - and I wonder how they plan to warsh themselves at the end of their afternoon workout. I am consoling my dirty self and lamenting my chubability by eating Doritos right out the bag and watching episode after episode of My So-Called Life.
We confirmed with neighbors and Jaime at the mini super, yup, no hay agua hoy, resigned shrug, normal. And I called the potable water company but no one answered. I don't know that you can pay to have water delivered to your home tinaca but I thought it was worth an ask. Earlier we carried empty jugs across the street to the ocean and filled them with seawater. Now we have seaweed in our toilet bowl.
sigh.

woke up to running water, feeling civilized and sane again. It was just one of those days in Mexico...

A whole new slant to the endless should we flush the paper question. So, did you flush it?
