In Stitches

There were only three couples at the bible study last night. Usually there are about 8-9 couples. So, we decided to skip the study and just talk. We talked for about one hour and laughed for about two hours. Walt and Emily told us about their trip to El Salvador (where Walt was born) for Thanksgiving, which involved eating turtle eggs. Apparently, you peel off the top of the shell, which looks like a ping-pong ball, and suck the contents into your mouth. It all sounded very disgusting, if you ask me. In El Salvador, however, it’s a delicacy. Somehow, the conversation transitioned into Christy’s sleep habits and bad childhood memories of her dad’s snoring. That whole topic, somehow, brought up the subject of protecting your home against burglars. Walt showed us this 8 oz. t-ball bat that he bought, and keeps under his bed, to protect himself in case of a home-invasion. He gave us a demonstration of what he would do if a burglar entered his home. It was all very hilarious. It was fun to hang with friends.
