These days are passing a lot quicker now. Hard to believe that a little less than two months ago I was still in Mexico, aching to get back to the states. I can barely remember my day-to-day life there, all except for the blistering heat and random bike-rides to the gym on the outskirts of Miramar.

It's classic Sunday afternoon, and the Gonzales family is chillin' extra hard in the back room, watching Rome on HBO. I'm waiting for my only favorite show, Entourage, to come on a 7pm. It used to be Lost, but we don't get the channel it comes on, and the season is over. I was really into Lost when I was in Mexico, and would look forward to each ( Read more... )

The whirlwind trip from there to my small town life of Gonzales has been a little jolting, ( Read more... )

I swear to dog, man, I can't stand that "Uh...I don't know" face. Dr.Gallo has been serving this to me every time I come to him with a household problem, and it makes him look like a confused/guilty 12-year old confronted by his father about a broken house lamp. These have been coming and waves lately, like an unpaid karma bill that someone else ( Read more... )

Well sum-ma-ma-bitch! I just finished my final report for the MIRT Mexico program a couple of minutes ago, and treated myself to a spicy tri-tip sandwich from the cafeteria. It was so worth it, and now I don't have any more reason to return to this lair of boredom and computer screen buzzing. I busted out a six-page report like a champ, with all ( Read more... )
