I have come to embrace the wildlife here... well, at least most of it. Tonight, after a short journey to get a bite to eat at April and Jose's place, I came home and sat in the sala to watch the sunset. I had a glass of water by my side, and a bee of some kind, not a honey bee, kept flying around the glass. I would shoo it away but it continued. So I thought, "Well, maybe the thing is thirsty, and if it gets a drink, maybe it will just go away". I didn't feel like getting up and having a war with a damn bee. So sure enough I left the thing alone. It wandered down into my plastic cup, got a drink, and then flew off to who knows where. As the sun went down, nearly completely dark, I saw something by my lounge chair near the foot... it was a very large bull frog. I started talking to it as if it were a cat, or a dog: "Hello frog. Why don't you go in my room and eat some bugs." I know you won't believe this, but the thing turned and hopped into my room. I am just hoping he ate some bugs. Now he is back out here on the sala with me... a curious creature... I like any animal that eats the bugs that want to eat me! Frogs Rock!
