hola, all is well.

hmmm. went on splits this week. we set a goal to eat 5 dinners, fell short with only 3. i ate a bunch of chiles that day to win the trust of the members. whole habanero, plain. burned a little. whole chile verder, plain. didnt even feel it. many tamales verdes (tamales with habanero salsa) warm. all that chile burns twice, btw.

we had a party at our apartment building on saturday, it was the baptism of these 2 catholic "life partners" dudes. music at the max, mariachi band yodeling it out, all sorts of awesome mayhem. didnt stop all night.

i laughed to myself when in priesthood they had all the young men stand up and talked to them about going to do baptisms for the dead next week. wait, let me correct myself. it was all the young men without kids. that made me giggle.

its really hot here

ive been playing the prelude music for the last 2 sundays for the baptisms. dont ask me why. i made up these 2 songs a few transfers ago that apparently are well liked, and since im the only one who knows how to play anything, im in charge of prelude. luckily no one but the elders realize that the music repeats itself every 5 minutes.

im still hunting, but know its cucarrachas. im getting quite skilled at judo kicking them before they can scurry out of view. im trying to learn to hover about 6 inches off the ground so i can kick furiously with both feet as i float in my "left-handed dragon" pose. one foot just doesnt pack enough ammo to take down the hordes.
