choose one:
nah
i think we deserve one... sorry, them's the breaks.
i've been busy... no really i have. after we saw Walk The Line i gave a final exam then left to Mexico for three and a half weeks. needless to say, it was a great trip (more on that in a second), but i returned home only eight hours before the new semester began and "teaching in the 21st century isn't what it used to be"... i'm completely serious. so now, after a couple weeks of settling in, not to mention a gentle nudge from a reliable source, i'm ready for some cheese on rye - toasted, please.
as i was saying, Mexico was like a dream... no, let me try that again. i often dream i'm Mexican... uh, one more chance. we soaked up Mexico - its pleasures and frustrations - like dry sponges in a soup plate. at the risk of being short and sweet: it was awesome. i've never had so much good food day after day, i've never seen so many people crammed onto one street, i've never used a tablecloth, a rug and a curtain for blankets, and i've definately never seen a baby Jesus made out of radishes. may i reccommend Mexico?
