What do you say when you've misplaced your "Lost" DVD?

I have stayed in one place for more than 2 days, which is mountainous considering my last month of backtracking and getting a sore ass on buses. (The camera obviously didn't help).

I was in Santiago, Chile for the last 4 days and have enjoyed the perks of living as an Arniboldi. (For those of you unfamiliar, the Arniboldi's are the sugar daddy family of sorts I stay with in Santiago. They are amazing, and if I ever amount to anything, they will receive a large dedication. For instance, when I win Wimbleton in 2008 or 2009, I will owe it all to the Arniboldi's, pilates and a daily regiment of ginseng. )

News from the Arniboldi household: Pedro (the hilarious 15-year old son, who is possibly more mature than me) was recently ranked #3 in his entire grade. When pressed for his opinions on #1 and #2, he summed it up with "stupid assholes". (Later that day, I taught he and his buddy the meaning of Mo Fo).

The other big news was that Lucho, the father and least proficient English speaker in the family, received two massive boxes for his birthday containing the "Learn English Now!" language programs (Volumes 1 and 2) involving CD-ROMS, videos, CD's, Books, an English speaking Indian to be placed in the cupboard, etc. When I came home to the house that day, he was less than pleased with me, adding "This fault is all yours". Apparently on a previous visit while having lunch with Lucho's mother and the rest of the family, she noticed Lucho's English was not up to snuff compared to everyone else. So her big birthday present to Lucho was this very expensive language program and nothing else. He says that I owe him a big birthday present because I caused all of this. In due time, I shall make up for my blunder. In the meantime, it is entertaining to see him strolling around the house with "1 O'clock, 2 O'clock, 3 O'clock Rock" stuck in his head. I of course jump in to provide baritone support.

General Recommendation: If you have an addictive personality, I advise not purchasing seasons 1 and 2 of the TV show "Lost" and putting it in a DVD player connected to a television. Day's of your life with be lost. (see how I did that) BOOYA!
