All In One Fall...Ruptured 2nd Vertebra

My one and only true companion died. A horrific tragedy occurred in the Montevideo bus station, Terminal Tres Cruces, when my trustworthy music-maker took a fatal fall. Her neck broke immediately and my attempts with duct tape made me reconsider my life´s course and realize that medical school might have been helpful.

Se acabó la guitara. She was growing prettier at every junction as I added a sticker from each country as I passed through. I´m not sure what I´ll do now. I think a harmonica might be a wiser move for the future (considering money, weight and space), except for that I don´t know how to play one. I will really miss my girl a lot, though. There was quite an emotional attachment after all these months together after I rescued the guitar from the trash and gave her new life.

She is now a decorative ornament in a Punta del Este hostel.



This is probably the most breaking news this blog will ever carry...so I´ll hopefully find a remedy within the week.

And I´m in Punta del Este, one of the premier South American Atlantic resort destinations. Come in the summer like it´s intended - my only advice! There is absolutely no one.
