culos o colas?

so. i went to see lucha libre, two nights in a row. it was a bit much. the first night was the more professional one in a stadium in el tule. i saw the famous huracan ramirez, el hijo de huracan ramirez, el hijo del santo, alushe, blue demon... the rudo said, "i have no mother muahuahahaha!" edgar said, "no mames, hurcan ramirez es como monte alban!" alushe, the enanao dressed like a puppy, was okay because he was a tecnico. but if he had gotten any closer to me, i would have freaked out. the second night was the more slapstick one in a fair in las canteras. it was nice because there were lots of families and kids. it was super super full and there luchadores dressed up like women and enanos in creepy chuckie outfits. so i closed my eyes and took a nap because customes-masks-etc. me dan miedo.

the boys, viet, guanabana and edgar, came over to adriana´s house and entered one at a time and met the parents. then they started to cook and viet wore the manzanita apron. guanabana didn´t do anything, he supervised. they made pasta with salad and pieces of bacon. the mom was the judge and liked the food. we thought we were in trouble! but sunday night, adriana, anna and i cooked. the papa took out the table and set it up outside. we made pasta with tomato and meat sauce, salad with nuts, apples and manchego cheese, mashed potatoes, agua de limon, and oaxaqueno chocolate chip cookies. erick-san the neighbor dropped by and joined us and yami, another neighbor who had helped, came by too. the papa offered more mezcal at the atble. whatev, i think we won. the mama said that she prefers pasta without meat and we cried that wasn´t fair.

today, i helped adriana cut the tails of her perritos. she told me i could look away and i yelled and freaked out after i saw the cut off tail of the first perrito not on the perrito. akane and the mama were sad outside and were waiting. juan de dios said, "okay, let me change. wait, no, i don´t really want to do it," and went into his room.

i feel like i´m in limbo. i´ll have been in the united states for one week when classes start at vassar. oh man, i don´t want to go back to vassar. but i want to go home and take a bath. i want to pack for vassar and have a room and a bed. i want to see my family and cat--eat my aunt´s sushi burritos and their other food and then sleep on every one of their couches. i want to see my friends and go into boston.
