i’m back! (and freezing in the air conditioning of this house, i might add.) it’s weird–after being internet-less for the majority of three weeks now, i had to consciously remind myself to update. i’m sure you’re all glad that i remembered, as am i. i actually did keep a journal (handwritten of course) every day in reynosa so that i can look back at it and remind myself.
mexico was very, very, very good to me.
for once, i am not in the mood to share the experience with the world. not yet. maybe later. on the more superficial side (hee hee), i did take a lot of pictures, and i will post them when i get back to houston next week and can download them from my camera.
i’m not very wordy today, i think, as i’ve just been sitting here for about 10 minutes staring at the screen while i daydream. i’m sleepy from a busy trip, and revelling in being truly clean (shaved legs, clean fingernails, conditioned hair, non-sticky skin, ahhhhh) for the first time in more than a week. mom taught me how to make her yummy egg salad. i bought new running shoes to replace the ones i left with a 15-year-old girl named wendy in reynosa. i read the newspaper. i read sports illustrated’s mid-season baseball issue, and was appalled at rick reilly. i am starting to see why carter has such a dislike for him.
i don’t have much to do this week, so i’ll just be lounging i guess. i want to go through all my boxes in the attic so that i don’t take junk to houston, which will probably be fun, as many of the boxes haven’t been opened since high school graduation six years ago. i’m sure i will find some treasures.
i was thinking of going down to atlanta early, on friday, to hang out, and have my dad meet me on sunday or monday to drive to houston. but i found out today that some people will be gone. i dunno what i want to do. i am feeling very disconnected from my atlanta friends these days, and i am unsure of how to reconnect. i am probably worrying over nothing.
