Florida is a country?

I haven´t written in here....since the beginning because I have gone through some really hard months.  The whole ex leaving me situation has hit me more as time has gone by.  INstead of getting easier, it has actually gotten harder.  In any case, I feel like I have come out of this hole that I was in and am going to begin to build UP!!!! SO now, I can come back to earth and BLOG!! es una buena idea, no?

Some fun stories:

I was driving to Florida and I saw the sign for the Florida-Georgia border and I instantly thought, SCHEISSE I don´t have my passport! How will I get past border control?!?!?! (Kristina, Florida is NOT another country)

I´m going to Texas this week for 6 days to see friends and check out Austin since it´s one of the two places I applied for my Ph.D.  I really feel like I´m going to another country...(my mother says that some people in Texas actually DO believe it´s another country!)

Quotes from Kristina....that show my intelligence:

Bird (my brother) Do you have a six pack?

Me: no i just I have a vertical line and two horizontal lines crossing it.

Bird: So you have a six pack.

(back in high school, leaving Borders)

Me: I wish there were a place you could rent books (instead of buying them from Borders)

Bird: That´s the library.

(talking to Laila on the phone)

Me: She´s not stalking me. She just follows me and goes to places that I go.

Laila: that´s the definition of a stalker.

Ok! enough for now! BASTA

glad to be back!
