Gone

Today, my crutch; my only sense of sanity; my only outlet to vent of the annoying ¨j¨ people are gone! Gone! I´m all alone, in a foreign country, with no money, and no language skills. AHHHH.

OK, so I´m playing with this update. Son left today. He borded a 8:00am bus to Guatemala City. He´ll then need to catch a taxi to the airport, and will hopefully manage to make his 2:20pm flight. As long as he doesn´t hit traffic along the way, he should arrive at the airport 2 hours prior to his departure.

My money situation should be cleared today. I went to the police station yesterday, and filed -hopefully- the necessary report (innocent, and stupidly, I forgot to bring my spanish dictionary. Tough, it would have been convenient to have, I managed to explain -for the most part- the situation. The officer was very friendly, and once I was able to sit and see someone, the process for filing the report was quite seamless- The only aspect I wasn´t fully comfortable with, was telling him how much I lost; and though it wasn´t much in US standards, the amount I lost would be considered a small fortune to a Guatemalan.)... At this point, it should be as easy as the bank looking over all the $&/··& I faxed them and crediting my account.
