I used to feel faint (ears humming, heat waves, tingly hands) everytime I went to the centro in Porto Alegre - I think its a mixture of the heat and the craziness of a Brazilian down town.

After our get together, I totally understand you not telling the in-laws :), but I would take Nani´s advice and carry your info with you, just in case. Sounds like your blood sugar got too low, with the heat, it is easy not to eat enough or frequently enough (at least, all of my fainting is related to that and not pregnancy), so make sure you eat!! Especially fruit for the natural sugar.<br /><br />Does Sidnei have a checking account? If he does, you can get an internet PIN and pay all the bills on-line. SO much easier than waiting in lines.Corinnenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654143697024684509.post-3792455050908076812010-01-25T20:45:21.918-02:002010-01-25T20:45:21.918-02:00I hope you´re ok now!

I do this even today. Even though I speak enough english I am afraid that if anything happens that I won't be able to speak at all (pass out or something)... so I keep all this contact information with me all times. <br /><br />I have a pretty good guess of why you have been feeling like this... a little 'brazilian-american' on the way?Nanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05802492142900190123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654143697024684509.post-91119268371709627692010-01-25T18:34:33.370-02:002010-01-25T18:34:33.370-02:00Oh no!

I think the typical inefficiency of things here that usually work faster in the US can be explained by the significant difference in people's generosity with their time here :) so it's a trade. Hang in there :)<br />BTW, where's that haircut picture you promised? Any better?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
