Step 1: Sit inside.
Step 2: When the Haitians "remind" you for the fifty-seventh time that it isn't safe to sit inside, re-locate to the outdoor office.
Step 3: Place large tarp over the "office," which includes: you, a desk, a chair, a computer, the internet modem, and cords.
Step 4: Watch a movie with some friends in the office under the tarp while munching on Pringles, canned peaches, and candy.
Step 5: Move office back inside when the light rain becomes a downpour and threatens to flood the theater.
Step 6: Dry off all electronic devices and cords.
Step 7: Decide it's time for bed.
Step 8: Move beds away from torn areas in tarps.
Step 9: Attempt to fall asleep, only to be rudely interrupted by raindrops that have made their way through holes in the tarps and
onto your face.
Step 10: Move beds again.
Step 11: Re-position yourself and the blankets on your bed so as to not repeat step 9.
Step 12: Attempt to fall asleep - again - to the sound of rain on a tarp...and pouring off of a tarp...onto you.
