splashing red paint

So in my parents' preparations to go to Tanzania, I figure it's much like preparing for their deaths *touch wood*. In their absence I have to figure out forms and more forms, where to get stuff, how to cook stuff, basically how to not die when they are not around, and it is an exhilarating whirl of excitement that is liberating, because I'll have the house virtually to myself many many days a week (though the package comes with all the housework but who cares, it will be magically done).

But I have to get past exams first.
