I am over the Gobi Manchurian

It had to happen...I am over the gobi manchurian or looking at the toilet it is more over me!! After Darshan....the Polish man said because I was feeling ill he would like to offer me a ginger tea and a hot shower.....is that the same as immodium.?...I thanked him and hailed the tuk tuk. There were two people and I invited them to share my taxi if they were staying at Ananda Lodge. They were Italian...they hopped in and said do I mind if we make a few stops. After my awful Italian lodger, I decided I already didn't ike them...(how generous and enlightened I am when I am ill!!!!) I offer them a lift and they make the 15min journey 50min!!! We stop at every chemist, not telling me why...I presume condoms because they are not ill but they are DESPERATE...anyway it turns out they have seen a dog covered in fleas and they want some powder.. They have both been living at Sai Baba's ashram for 2 years and had come down for a few days. I told them I was planning to go there after the last darshan...which is the 28th and the night Mother is hosting a farewell party. They said if they stay, I would be welcome to share a taxi with them to Puttaparthi and I could stay in their apartment until the next morning, when they would then take me to the Ashram......I love Italians.....one tuk tuk journey and my opinion has changed completely.....I now want to help the flea riddened dog as well!
