It's RAINING here. For the first time since I've been back in Haiti I think. And the rain seems to have brought with it a cool(er) breeze. Mesi Jezi!
It's been RIDICULOUSLY hot here this past week. Even Haitian people are saying so... it's not just us gwo blan. (Fat white people.) You know it has to be bad when even our HAITIAN son is busting out with heat rash all over him. We expect it from Nia and Jos, but when Nico starts getting heat rash you know it's bad. I am PROUD to say that I am the only Mangine here in Haiti WITHOUT heat rash. People make fun of me for touting Gold Bond so highly, but the proof is in the puddin'. And by puddin', I mean the sticky paste that the Gold Bond powder makes when it mixes with my sweat. (Sorry, I know you didn't need that visual.)
I am experiencing a problem with the Gold Bond though. I am afraid I am becoming a bit of an addict. As in, it's taking more and more to produce the same cooling effect. I worry I am building tolerance to it. I am going to work on weaning... tomorrow. Or maybe this winter.

Ahhh, the Gold Bond. How we learned to know it and love it well. I suppose you are not only a junky but a bit of a "pusher" as well.
