i am now back in budapest... the fleas are gone and we are still working on the fucking lice... i sport various ablutions
have a lot of conflicting emotions... especially about the way the parents blackmail me with the happiness of the children... worked too... though i was very aware of why i let myself be manipulated that way. the little cracks or handholds that i offer to the children... things to keep, those... they are important enough... that i must swallow hard and allow what i would normally never allow.
still thinking hard. things happened, before i left.
well, this computer, here at lajos-the-hungarians, truly sucks. especially since zoli was here and ahem, fixed it. did i tell you i took zoli out to a restaurant and he was too
embarrassed to eat. see, he had never been to a restaurant. at home they can never afford such things... not even this cheap hungarian eatery. often they starve cause they give whatever food there is to their kid. zoli said:
i have to tell you this cause i have to... if it comes to my kid, i will do whatever, lie cheat steal, from whomever. from whomever, he said. if it comes to my kid eating or not, i will do all that. i want you to know, to understand. do you understand?
yes, i said. i do.
