Back, but unfortunately I now have a story to finish, which is where my writing attention is focused. I promise a longer post (or two) when I have the time and photos to draw upon.

Despite rain, injury, and high surf (the cause of the injury), we had a great time. Next time we have decided to be a bit more adventurous and break away from the all inclusive, but I think it was a great way to get comfortable visiting a foreign country. We can already tell that Mexico makes a decent getaway for us since it’s 3 hours away by plane, the people mostly know some English, and it’s not expensive if you know what you’re doing.

I also think I am going to wind up being the language-speaker on these trips. Not that I exactly have a gift for language (or, god help us, pronunciation), but I can usually order us food and know what we’re getting. Which is really, really important in the country that invented menudo (the stew, not the band — though they invented that, too).

Peace out, girl scouts.

    I’m catching up:

    1 – Sleep study! I did that. I have apnia AND anxiety disorder. How strong are your meds?

    2 – I’m glad he’s so freaking awesome. What do they say about things worth waiting for? I think that applies to people, too.

    3 – Is the book finished yet?!?!?!
