Dad and Rach and Kallie and Ashlee

Okay so I just now logged on after writing the last two posts and saw that you guys responded! Hi Dad! I am okay, nice and safe adn not married:) I thought you might appreciate that! Rach- I am going to have to send you some of the pics of these kids because they are too cute to handle! Seriously! Kallie!! Babe, wow, I wish you were here... but I guess I can settle for you moving to Chile with me.
And finally Ashlee... Your dad cracks me up. I hope your internship is going well and so is CPK. I am totally thinking of you as I am on these crazy adventures. In fact, my journal has notes for you in it. Like when I wrote right after Jason proposed, I titled "Ashlee, you've got to read this one" But yeah, I miss you like crazy!

Yo, hope you got an MArcela's email (she told me she sent you one). If you didn't let me know, because I probably sent the wrong email or something. She wants your flight info and stuff so she can come pick you up. You ladies are gonna have so much fun!!! I want to go hang out on tropical beaches!! OH! But guess what?! I scored the coolest part-time job EVER! (now I just need to find a real full time job to go with it). I'm hosting these classy singles events where I get paid (and well!) to do things like cooking classes, dance parties, kayaking, rock climbing, eat really nice dinners, etc...yeah basically to go out and have a blast and make sure other people are having fun too. Sweet huh?

Rebecca, glad you made it ok. Sounds like your adventure is starting off great (sleeping on the beach, chatting with a pot-head, getting hit on). I'm getting excited about going to NY on 9/10 to help Grandma pack up and move to Virginia. When we get there, I'm hoping to go to Lon Solomon's church, McLean Bible Church on Saturday night with Stephen Katz, and will invite Grandma and Uncle Kenny and Aunt Raima. Pray for openness. I'm praying for you regularly. Love, Dad

a good sign

I live near a long thin park called Parque Forestal. It's really quite a nice park and it has a long stretch of a lane for riding bikes or jogging. And since I have a fear of riding bikes in this city, I jog. It's really pleasent. I usually listen to radioDisney on my mp3 player and jog along to Jonas Brothers, Beyonce, or Julieta Venegas. Great stuff. Yesterday on my jog I noticed that the trees were beginning to change. Fall has finally arrived and I am glad for the change. But as I was jogging through the falling leaves, I began to think about how much I like fall. And I had this special moment when I realized that I want to be here in Santiago, jogging through this park for many falls to come. After the past few weeks of cultural adjustment being a little more painful than normal, this was a nice thought to have.

la musica de chile

For a moment I would liek to ponder the music of Chile. You see, I listen to just about everything (except non-live jazz). Even country, although in this category I limit myself to Dixie Chicks and The Judds (only the old stuff). Here in Chile there is really only a few types of music. One, the corny romantic music that belongs on programs like "Delilah at night". Being the hopeless romantic that I am, I love this type of music. Another type of music is Reggaton (not sure about the spelling, but do I ever spell words correctly?). This is Latin America´s response to Hip Hop. Very good for dancing. I also love the fact that most Reggaton is in Spanglish, my favorite language. There is this other type of music that I like to call the "Corny Electric Piano Musica". Too corny for me and I can only take so much electric piano in one song. I am amazed at how much Englsih music is played here. And people sing to it. they actually know the words, but they have no clue what t

murderous thoughts for cats

I got home from work today, exhausted, only to face the horrible whining of the neighborhood cats outside my window. They used to be really loud, and then in the cold of the winter they disappeared. But now they seem to have returned in full force. I sure hope I can sleep tonight!
