I´m in Monterrico right now. Black sand beach. really big  waves. killer undertow.  Gorgeous!!!!!! And I´m staying in this place for 7 dollars a night. And it´s really nice. They have the best licuados(smoothies) EVER. It´s just what I needed after being in the emergency room for 3 hours in Antigua.  I caught a really bad....stomach thing... ( Read more... )

When I was in Mexico Steph and I were given these really nice homemade journals by these two guys who worked in this cafe.  They wanted us to write our thoughts about the Mexico. And I have been trying to upload photos on facebook and email people and fast internet access is not always an easy thing to find. What I am trying to say is that this is ( Read more... )

I love my friends. I was in wonderful Ropo for halloween and it was amazingly fun. Got pleasantly drunk. Next morning went to black bear diner. That night went to a Matt Nathanson concert with friends. Which was pretty much amazing. Ended up staying in the city till 3am just wandering around in a mad search for clam chowder in a bread bowl. Ended ( Read more... )

I've decided driving through San Francisco is the worst decision EVER! Sure it's pretty but the drivers are INSANE. And the traffic was horrible. Bleh! But now I'm in Sonoma again and in a weird way it feels like I'm home. The past couple of days I've had lots of fun and it makes me kinda wish I was living up here still.

Plus the amount of unhealthy yet delicious food available is amazing.  We had hot dogs, nachos, pretzels, and beer.  We missed out on Churros but I was already bursting at the ( Read more... )

Let me tell you how Un-American I am.  I don't like baseball. Yep that's right I said it. I think it is the longest game in the history of the world. And pretty boring at that. I mean 9 innings? That is just craziness. But guess what I'm doing tonight? Going to a Giants game. Yep beyond all reason I am exposing myself to the torture that is ( Read more... )

I thought there'd be a track
that I could follow
a place where i would be
but I'm just standing or stumbling.

hidden behind the smudge of decisions
made in haste
I'm laid to waste and waiting
always waiting for something more.
