I have spent my day shopping with friends for the cafe... and talking with others about physics, religion, psychology, and comic books. Well, let me rephrase that... I've been listening, they've been talking (except the comic book conversation, obviously). I'm now sitting drinking un suero (spelling?) Smoking and eating some sort of rice like chili snack that I have no idea what its called but I think I love. Better day than yesterday.
Its hotter than hell in Oaxaca today but I don't mind, it is a welcomed change from the winter I remember so well. There are many things today that are reminding me of other days. Example a whistle I keep hearing that resembles the sound a friend of mine kept making with a straw a couple of weeks ago at the zoo. My first instinct was to go outside and see if they were waiting for me, my second instinct was to smile at the sound of days gone by.
There have been many funny jokes today that reminded me of the last time I was here. I saw a bunch of people I hadn't yet seen and met a few new ones that seemed alright.
I ate some good food.. drank some good drinks.
Now I'm back in my hotel chatting via Facebook with a few friends from back home and I'm missing my people.
However... my maid made me 2 toilet paper decorations today. I think in part because the one from yesterday is still in the bathroom and she didn't throw it away. Maybe it really is nice to have people notice.
So here are some pictures to pass the time while I'm not feeling quite as creative as normal.
This is today's breakfast of huevos rancheros, fresh squeezed O.J., french bread with butter and strawberry jam, and coffee. And the nice lady from yesterday remembered that I can't eat the fruit and didn't even offer today! That made me really happy.
This is my suero de corona that I drank earlier, and part of my friend Peter's hand. It's such a tasty beverage, it's lime or lemon juice and beer and salt and yum.
Dinner... 5 tacos de carne from a little place down the street and a Sol con limon y sal. Worst beer choice I've ever made.
This is toilet paper design number one. It's a flower I guess...
This is toilet paper number 2, I turned to leave the bathroom after taking the first picture and saw it and it made me really happy.
That's all I've got right now... except the Mexican writing play list includes: Mumford and Sons, Gotye, Foster The People, and that stupid we are young song by Fun.
Also... I haven't seen a single star since I've been here... I guess that's what happens when you stay downtown... sad face.
