Well, it's been a while and much has happened. I wish I could relate to you all of the thrilling stories and adventures I've Hs over the past few weeks, but I'm a bit pressed for time, so this will be a wee bit short (I wrote that in a British accent so it sounds way better in my head.)
I've been exiled... to David. Our zone is on the border of Costa Rica, so therefor I'm only a country away from my cousin Elder Blake Palmer over in Nicaragua 
. It's hot, flat, and very chill. The work here is suppossed to be "hard" but life goes on.
. It's hot, flat, and very chill. The work here is suppossed to be "hard" but life goes on.My new comp is Élder Morán and he's from Panamá! Cool guy. Works hard. Likes to wake me up in the middle of the night pretending he's been possessed. It's not as funny as it sounds.
Another great highlight...
They cut off my toenail (ingrown toenail), this past wednesday and it was painful. I don't like pain. Or needles. There was a lot of both. And being in a Panamanian hospital that we found of google maps, we're praying that this works (still no sign of the nail coming back...) My companion got a video of me hyperventalating like a small child and trying not to cry while the doctor is working his dark magic, but I deny that it's actually me.
Stuck in the house
Well, I just do what the doctor told me and what my comp says, because I'm the Gringo in the situation and therefore my opinion is overruled by basically anyone not Gringo. So due to my toe problem I had to stay in the house for a week, not wearing shoes, eating junk food and ordering pizza. I did get to dress like an island elder for a week for when we took a small detour to the super market (flip-flops, pant legs rolled up, mola tie. Automatic +10 in every area of missionary work.) It feels right.
Well some other stuff happened, I can't remember to much, we ate something called a "mono" which is actually not real monkey, etc.
Have a productive week
Elder Nelson
