not your average travel blog

I've already lied to you.
Here we are, just getting used to the idea of each other, and I've already gone and lied. I can't promise this isn't going to be like any other travel blog out there because frankly, I wouldn't like them enough to read them to find out what the average blog would be like.

But this one is probably better. Because I'm better. And there will be more than travel. There will be half baked stories, and partly written poems, and some of my favorite photos. And me. You get the best of me.

As Mr. Lund would say, "you can take that to the bank, Jack." "And that means you can count on it."

I have been sitting here for the last few hours, listening to my new spanish language CDs and debating whether or not I should start a blog again. So far, I've gotten this lame-ass entry and...

" ¿Qué es?"
"coliflor"
", coliflor. Es bueno, ¿no?"
"Más o menos. Necesita sal. "

So, if you're ever stuck in a spanish-speaking country, and desperately need to tell someone your cauliflower needs salt, you know who to call.

Costa Rica, here I come.

First, let me just go on the record right now as saying, reading that was exactly like a conversation with you in person (as far as I can recall). And second, I love that I am priviledged enough to be your very first commenter on your very first blog post!! Yay me! Last, have fun, be safe, and don't forget to put on some damned sunscreen! Us fair-skinned folks roast out there in that Mexican sun!!

What a gift to be able to positively spin your hours of waiting in an airport! Can't wait to learn more Spanish through your travels. Still looking for a place that serves cauliflour in my neighborhood!
