in response to c-line, i still use my hotmail account. i just began the other this morning and i dont see a complete switch ever happening, at least no time soon, so dont feel you need to change the address. i just through it out there bc gmail seems to be the best service, at least the largest (this is wal-mart thinking at its finest).

speaking of, i shop at wal-mart, or aurerra, in mexico. i dont like myself for it, but damn, the prices are low. i mean really low. avacados, which i eat one to two of per day, cost 15 pesos a kilo in wal-mart. in the market in ixtepec, they are 25 pesos. it is amazing (dont i sound like a bumpkin, or did i always) the selection they have compared to the town where i live. my friends from the big cities have complained about how expensive the town markets and stores are and they shop there exclusively. i only buy chicken, avacados and maybe one or two other things there. all else i support the local community. it is hard to avoid it. evil magnet.

did i mention i eat avacados? how much are they in the states? i am addicted to them so this could be bad for when i return.

i never thought i would begin a story this way, but... so i was eating a tomato the other day. for real. a red, pulpy, evil, acidic, used to make me want to wait until you turned your head so i could toss it into a napkin or out the window so i didn´t have to eat it, tomato. and i ate it. dont love them, but i eat them. astounding.

but peaches? i have never really liked peaches. why are they hairy? passion fruit? hairy? those words dont go together in my mind. of course, i would now eat a peach. i eat almost anything (except vile onions when i can avoid them, which is damn difficult bc it is in everything down here. if i were a chef, i would create an entire way of cooking that left those nasty things where they belonged: in the ground) now, but still i dont love a peach. which makes these two comments from anonymous all the more odd. and calling me peach? i am in the dark. any lamps out there?
