The many missadventures of the Drewster and the La.

Day one...ant explosion. We have been told that the ants in Thailand are unlike any other. They get into everything and there is preaty much nothing you can do about it but store EVERYTHING in tupperware. The first day we moved into our home we noted a black oily spot on the wall. It was a nest! I start yelling for Drew who runs to fill a bucket of water. (take note that we had no bug spray) I start beating on the ants with a broom. They start running up the handle and attack my arms and start biting my legs. Drew comes to the rescue and dumps the water. The water serves to flush the whole ant army over Drew's own feet as well. It was a Lucy, Ethel moment. Suddenly out of nowhere our five foot savior comes running with a can of bug spray! Our Thia land lady saved the day, all the while smiling away as she blasted the suckers.

Day two...Bike flip. Conquering the ants and rising as heroes we went out and purchased a new bike for me (The la) I was so excited! I have not had my own bike since I was 14. It has a bell and a basket and place for boxes on the back and it's oh so shiny! All day Drew and I zipped around riding, loving the feeling of the wind through my hair. We stopped at the store and on the way home it began to get dark. I flipped on my brand new bike lite and was ringing my bell and loving the wind and when suddenly I took a curve too fast! As I flew through the air all I could think of was, "I must protect the bike. I fell, it landed on me and grocerys went every where. Do not worry folks. The bike is fine!
