Carmelly in Central America!

Wow, so it's been a pretty crazy few months, and without much updating from me. Since Rafi and I broke up my life has changed quite a bit. Mostly because I had gone through this huge transition from college to the "real world" with him, but now I had to figure out where and how to focus my attention in this new life. It's easy for me when I have a

Wow, that sounds like quite a venture!

I'm ever so glad that I was able to go to Chichen Itza before it was commercialized. My family took a long trip through Mexico and Central America when I was about ten, and I saw that ruin plus quite a few others before they were entirely unearthed and before the vendors arrived in droves.

As long as you're in the Yucatan, I recommend Cozumel or Chemuyil; they tend towards hugely expensive these days, but if you can find a reasonable place to stay, they're utterly gorgeous.

Can't wait to hear more about your trip, sounds like fun!

Finally moved in and got stuff unpacked enough to have Internet access. We won't really be able to get everything unpacked until you get back because we need to move stuff around and put things in the second bedroom and such so we'll have to do another big load of reorganizing then, but it's been going well so far.

I meant to ask you about parking in the lot in back, but assumed that you probably have your car there at the moment. Moving it around and trying to find parking on the street with all the construction going on has been much worse than normal. Even worse considering we don't yet have a new parking permit for this neighborhood.

Otherwise everything's going well at home. Just trying to get through the boxes and get settled in.

Hey, I don't have my car in the back, I left it in Reno to clear up the space for you guys. You can park in the spot that is... I think third from the front. It usually has a motorcycle parked next to it and it has a black "No Parking" sign. That was my spot :)

Glad to hear things are going well. Again, sorry I took up so much space. How do I have so much crap??

I need to send my suitcase home... I bought a new backpack. I'm just going to send it addressed to you, okay?

[belgand]

Not a problem at all.

Thanks for leaving the space clear. I wish I'd asked in advance instead of just assuming that you'd be using it. Getting our neighborhood parking permit to go through is going to take some time and already resulted in getting a ticket.

As for having that much stuff, well, that's how we've learned to feel every time we move. I just started bringing more and more stuff from home or acquiring it myself as I went through college, storing it over the summer or such until I moved into an apartment. This has all been following me for years and years.
