Bathroom Manual Needed

Does anyone know how to use a bidet? Because my host mom's adult daughter pointed at it during my tour of the apartment and was like, "You probably don't use these, do you?" And I was like, not in America. Then she was all awkward. Anyway, it looks like a sink for your butt. And it smells like garlic.

Ahh, Italy.

Oh yeah, I'm here, in case you didn't figure it out. I feel like it's Wednesday, but apparently it's already Saturday and I got here yesterday. I'm living with a grandma who loves talking, but can't speak English, so the immersion thing is definitely there.

One of my most pressing questions was answered shortly after my arrival. Yes, the spaghetti sauce is similar to my mother's. Now I can die in peace.

I'm not! I wake up in the morning and I can already smell it.

Well, if it's a sink for your butt... and it smells like garlic... then you just kind of put garlic and butt together, I guess.

You know, I could seriously write a lengthy post about nothing but bathroom and digestive issues that have arisen since I came here, but I don't think it would go over so well.
