Ten year anniversary!
Holy shit... I just realised that exactly ten years ago YESTERDAY, I made my very first journal post. And today, for no reason, I decided to try to write again after a very long absence. That is awesome ( Read more... ) -
Reading old entries
I just finally accomplished something I've been trying once in a while to do for the last few years: Download all my old Livejournal entries, at once, in a readable format. (Thanks, ljArchive!) Hopefully I'll be able to do the same with my even older Deadjournal entries, now that I've finally remembered my username - it's been that long since I ( Read more... ) -

I had a dream last night where Gonzalo died, and I was all alone.
I woke up crying and he held me tight, murmuring "estoy aqui mi amor, siempre estaré aqui" until we fell asleep again.
I have spent every possible moment of my life with this man since we met. I still miss him every time we're apart, even for a few hours. And he moved to a completely ( Read more... ) -
Testing?
Worky worky... Using my iPod touch to post entries would be fuuuun! I'm never bringing my computer to school again...

Cross-continent road trip, part 7: The west coast smells amazing
I'm getting pretty excited for being back in Canada. It's a very different feeling from two months ago when I flew straight into Ontario from Veracruz and almost had a panic attack being with that many English-speaking people at once. This is the way to do it, a gradual phasing out of the palms into pine, and watching sunsets getting earlier and ( Read more... ) -
Cross-continent road trip, part 6: They're moving the team to ALBUQUERQUE!
Wait a minute... Mesquite grilled onions... Jalapeno relish... Mango-lime salsa! These are the kind of bold flavours they enjoy in...
Well, we're now in Gallup, New Mexico. That sore throat that I'd been whining about, thinking that it was just the air conditioning at night drying the air out, turned into a full-on cold, with all the bells and ( Read more... ) -
Cross-continent road trip, part 4: Texas warms to us
Weeell. We finally met some nice people today. I was seriously starting to lose faith in Americans.
We had to get up early this morning, because breakfast at this otherwise lovely hotel closes at nine am. It sounded early to us yesterday; when we woke up this morning it felt inhumanely early. Both our throats were ravaged once again by the air ( Read more... ) -
Because I'm too tired to write any more
Hey mom & dad,
Right now we're in McAllen, Texas, but you wouldn't know it from looking around. I've literally only seen about 4 or 5 people who actually look American, and we spent last night in the most crowded mall I've ever been in. It's pretty much just Mexico with American stores and prices. Everyone who works at the hotels, stores and ( Read more... ) -

We're not going to have air conditioning in the car for the trip.
I really don't want to be upset about it. But I am. For more reasons than just the fact.

make footsteps tick, talk to echoed walls
I just said goodbye to Mine. I'm not leaving until tomorrow, but we wanted to get our official goodbye done now while we're the only two here, because she doesn't feel totally comfortable around Gonzalo and Liz, and we both don't feel comfortable around El Doctor (though I certainly have no qualms about showing affection towards Mine at any time).
