well. i slightly overestimated the availability of internet in veracruz... which wouldn't have mattered if only the internet hadn't gone out at the valtierra household. needless to say, i'm a few weeks behind in blogging. sometimes i think i'd be better off not trying.
i don't have a lot of time right now, but as for current updates.... i'm in dallas, texas right now!! welcome back to the beautiful USA. i proudly flushed toilet paper for the first time in 4 weeks this afternoon. the last couple of days have been a whirlwind of goodbyes as we packed up from mexico and then a whirlwind of hellos today as we meet all the other interns from CAM (who keep coming in from all their different summer sites). amidst all the chaos, we made a trip to see a doctor 2 days ago in Ixta because i had an allergic reaction to something i ate (unrelated to the reaction i had to my bed at camp.) and got really hot in the middle of lunch the other day broke out into really itchy hives. the doctor shot me up with something and i've been taking whatever pills they gave me ever since, without much success. dear mom and dad: i think we should go to the doctor to get tested when i get home.
as for now, i'm short on time, but thank you guys for allll your prayers. i've been learning a lott and can't wait to get home to see everyone. for now i'm broiling in the texas sun and recovering. later, gators.
haha, never underestimate the wierdness of flushing toilet paper upon returning to the states! welcome back!
