what a drag it is getting old

Today I skipped my first day of work.
I'm riding the tail end of a cold that unfortunately decided to sink its teeth into me Friday evening. It figures and is quite frustrating.. I slave through a whole week of work looking forward to one thing: the weekend, and then that's taken away from me by a silly virus. bah. At least I had Ryan around. He took very good care of me. And I'm starting to feel much better.

But yeah, this means that I missed the Art for art's sake festival on Saturday that I was looking forward to.. and also this means we had to postpone the trip to the Angola Prison Rodeo (oh yes, it's real) for another week or 2.. woe is me. We did eat some good tapas at a restaurant on Friday though which included manchego flambe! It was quite special.

There are so many things I've been putting off that I need to get to already. lots of decisions that need to be made soon.

The weather is finally lightening up a bit around these parts.. and as it's now October I'm really beginning to feel those pangs of "homesickness" for Bloomington and the pretty leaves that are about to change colors, the town that stills has most my friends in it, the familiar friendly streets. I might get to visit in November.
We'll see. I miss school.

My family is already coming to visit at the end of this month. It'll be fun to see them and show them around my new current surroundings.

Most signs right now point towards abandoning the country for at least 6 months in January. Guatemala? Uruguay? Argentina? Spain again? somewhere else? To be continued..
