Indirect objects today. The geek within is enjoying this far more than I should admit.
It rained today while Bryan and I were walking down the mountain, and of all days for me to be wearing only an undershirt it had to be today. I felt very self-conscious and was worried that the Ticas might see my nipples, so I tightened my backpack so that the straps covered them. Call me a pansy if you must, but the people here are weird sometimes, and they'll make fun of gringos for just about any reason; for instance, I made fun of a gringo the other day just because he couldn't speak Spanish. I mean, it was Bryan, but still, I'm not even a Tico and I make fun of the gringos. So you can understand my apprehension.
By the way, the term for a male nipple in Spanish is "tetilla." Note that it is feminine. However, on a female breast, it is called a "pezon" and is in fact masculine. This language weirds me out.
No me gusta cuando usted puede ve mi tetillas.

Carmack, there is no reason to be ashamed of your man-boobs.
Uh-oh. Don't forget that when using compound verbs, the second should remain unconjugated...
