What a roller coaster - I am torn between feelings of elation and depression. Elation, because I managed to close my suitcase (by alternatively sitting on it and squeezing it between my legs, don't EVEN go there EB), and depression because it cost me $1,100 pesos to send one 6 kg box back to el Canada.
El Buro has been amazing through all of this. Through my tough times and my Depressed Danny attitude, he's been optimistically hilarious, comfortingly inappropriate and just... really nice. He keeps saying all the right things, and makes me feel 1000 times better. I hope I can return the favor someday.
It's my last night here in Mexico, and I will miss it a lot. I will 'go through the grieving steps' knowing that I will have the best airport pickup of my life. As Maggie says: you're closing one book, only to open a better one.
I own a Kindle, so I can't totally relate, but downloading a new one is always totally exciting.
You know Burra, when you write 'don't EVEN go there EB' all I read is 'Please go there EB'.
