Looky here!!! I totally just hopped on to give Becka a pre-Valentines Day blog warning, which is, no Sappy Valentines Day posts Becka! It's the most commercial of holidays and I spit on it!! So none of your 'I'd like to share special mundane moments like brushing my teeth in the morning and then sharing the Sunday Times' - NONE OF THAT!!

And yet I stumble across this blurb from gatita!! OK, since maybe spanish is more girl code, I'll give it a whirl -

No te preocupes gatita - no se que es lo problema para ti (todavia necesitamos hablar por telefono) pero, yo se que Dios esta contigo siempre!!! Como yo se, me preguntas??? Pues, no se como yo se - pero (well my spanish really can't keep up with my train of thought at this point) - but I'll just say I can't prove anything - we are souls and minds and some other scientific stuff - well.. where am i going with this - push the bad thoughts out of your mind - and just feel your soul - maybe ??

OK, I suck - BUT por lo menos, a perrita loves you!! and if Dios wasn't with you, do you think you'd have these little folks around the globe loving you - like me!?!

I don't do drugs, I swear - BUT - I did bring a Lindt truffle into the shower with me and ate it between shampooing and conditioning.. with herbal essence.. just for that endorphine rush - (hey, I do what i can)

In other news, I just sent you both invitations to the Manuel Montt 250 facebook group (I didn't start it, I swear) - but I gotta find the pic I have of Mariano ironing in his tighty whiteys and post it

Yeah. SO - Sorry I just totally used your blog as a platform to cheer up our hippie friend, becks - I swear my intention was to thwart you before you wrote a sappy valentines day blog - OK, I was secretly hoping you had already written one so I could tear it apart - I'm a sweet one - ey :/ but I know ya love me :)

So, Rachel has a loving spouse, so I don't wanna throw this quote at her, but for me and you, B, just remember - 'friends are forever and boys are whatever' - word to your mother..

love you both!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxo

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

KISS KISS KISS

swear I don't do drugs

MWAH MWAH - I'm like not even so happy right now, except that I got excited to see you kids' blurbs!! (even though they are kinda sad) - but I wanna cheer you up - Hashem loves you both and so do I!!

Ali you crack me up! Me encanta tu espanglish. Es "cool". No voy escribir u blog por Valentine's day porque Dios me ha cambiado de corazon. En serio! Lee mis blogs mas antiguos y vas ver que ahora estoy muy contenta ser solita. Es raro, lo se. Pero en los primeros dias de enero, Dios me ha hecho algo muy distincto en mi corazon. Y ahora, se que algun dia me gusta casarme, pero por ahora, "no way", estoy felicita ser sola. :) Pero, chiquita, quiero un "update" de ti. Entonces, mandamelo! :) te quiero alicita.

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!
