EXVOTO DEDICADO A SAN RAMÓN

EX-VOTO TO SAN RAMON PAINTED ON TIN WITH THE FOLLOWING LEGEND:

Mi vecina me gustaba mucho y teníamos un romance secreto pues ella estaba casada y aprovechábamos que su marido viajaba mucho por su trabajo para vernos, pero la otra noche, él regresó de sorpresa y, para que no me viera, me escapé desnudo por la ventana. Le doy las infinitas gracias a San Ramon Nonato de que nadie me vió y pude regresarme a mi casa, prometiendo con este retablito ya no meterme con mujeres casadas. Luis "N". Tepic, Nayarit.

*****************************

I was very attracted to my neighbor, and we were having a secret affair since she was married; we would take advantage of the fact that her husband traveled frequently for work to see each other. However, the other night, he returned unexpectedly, and to avoid being seen, I escaped naked out the window. I offer infinite thanks to Saint Raymond Nonnatus that no one saw me and I was able to make it back home, promising with this small votive painting never to get involved with married women again. Luis "N". Tepic, Nayarit.

EXVOTO DEDICADO A SANTA APOLONIA

EX-VOTO TO SANTA APOLONIA PAINTED ON TIN WITH THE FOLLOWING LEGEND:

La otra noche mi esposa y yo queríamos tener una noche de pasión y a mí se me ocurrió aventarme a la cama desde arriba del ropero, pero no le calculé bien y me pegué con toda la boca en el piso. Le doy las gracias a Santa Apolonia de que no me quedé sin dientes y no me fracturé la mandíbula con el tremendo golpazo que me dí y le prometo ya no hacer locuras. Miguel "N". Estado de México.

*****************************

The other night, my wife and I wanted to have a passionate evening, and I decided to launch myself onto the bed from the top of the wardrobe; however, I misjudged the distance and slammed my mouth hard against the floor. I thank Saint Apollonia that I didn't lose my teeth or break my jaw from that massive impact, and I promise not to do crazy things like that anymore. Miguel "N." State of Mexico.
