Last night I went out and about in San Diego even though I swore I wouldn't. Well, I should have stuck with that promise because it was a pretty stupid night. Some nice highlights, but over all a waste of time. Well, maybe not completely. I guess you need to be constantly reminded of who real friends/decent people are. Am I being vague? Of course, but only two people read this and they already know the drill.
And I love them very much.

B-Fry
Had dinner with Marbrisa last night at the Red Sea. Great Ethiopian food on University and 57th in San Diego. Every time I hang out with Marbrisa I realize how much I have missed her since the last time I saw her. Before eating we spent some quality porch time catching up and dishing it out. Dinner was great, we didn't gursha each other, but it was still fun. Plenty of leftovers! I hope next time I am down the four of us can all go and order bottles of that sweet honey wine.
Came home (my dads) and took care of Lucy. Her paws have been acting up and she has been having difficulty walking. Made a bed on the floor and her and I watched tv until midnight and then we both passed out.
Hope to see Marie for a little bit before I head up to LA. Got coffee at Krakatoa with Marbrisa this morning and now I am doing laundry, staring at my hairy ass legs.
So much homework to do, totally dreading it. Damn. Used Brandons log in on livejournal to check out old pandarojo posts from five years ago! Man, it took me back. Being 18 wasnt so bad after all. Good memories, I get nostalgic but then I realize that just being able to look back and appreciate all those good times is a blessing in itself. God, when did I become so fucking corny?

Viva Mexico!
Currently sitting in my old room at my moms house. Lots of old memories here of being an angst ridden teenager in el cajon. my zebra pillows and bla ck comforter are still here to remind me of those good times. oh, and all my tacky panda/manatee memorabilia.
today i spent the day with my mom. we went to the dentist to get our teeth cleaned. hah! after 2 years of neglecting this bi-yearly responsibility I was surprised to find that i had no cavities or horrible mouth/gum disease. i did get a new toothbrush in a handy zip up case and some floss. always great. especially when half way through my drive i realized i forgot mine at home.
we went to mexico! soo much fun! i was able to spend time with my moms friend angelica and her mom. went down to pick up my moms new leathers (she rides motorcycles) which were pretty bad ass. then we went to la diferencia and had tamarindomaritinis and tapas galore! my tiofederico met us there and we all laughed and joked and told stories. i had cafe deolla which is one of the most delicious drinks.
the nicest thing was hearing spanish all around me and smelling that tj air. sounds cheesy, but mexico has this smell to it that i love. it makes me sad because it reminds me of my abuelita and how much i miss her. that only reminds me of my dad and how sad he seems. i spoke to federico a little bit (he has known my dad and mom for 25 years!) and he told me that my dad was stubborn and just let him be him. yeah yeah, i know. but my dad is my dad and i love him and i cant just ignore it. i dunno, what can i say or do? either way it felt nice to talk to someone about my dad because i rarely if ever talk to my family in mexico.
aye, mi queridomexico. tantoqueteextrano.

Both Ends of the Speculum
i posted 2 blogs almost 2 months ago and i have decided to begin anew.
this quarter has been very stressful. four classes, demanding (and exciting) internship, and work. on top of that add social life and family. lord.
the internship with break the cycle is exactly what i need. too bad i wasted time at the adl when i could have been doing even more amazing things with btc. either way, its proved to be very challenging and very demanding. my goal is to implement a student center for dating violence on campus that will be able to sustain itself for years to come. hah! a challenge indeed, but its a good one and one i plan on tackling well into summer.
going to see david sedaris tonight with alana at royce hall. 2 papers to do before, after and before (before class that is) then down to san diego for a dentist appointment. i havent been feeling very well. possible doctors appointment this friday? oh joy.
