So I need to start out this blog with a major confession: I am on the meatwagon, and I love it. Carne Asada, pork loin, ground beef, shredded chicken, as well as some unidentified meat items have all been incorporated into my diet. I was terrified about how this would all go down with the old G.I. System, but it hasn't been any worse than the normal G.I. Issues I've had off and on since I've been in country. I thought that there would be an intense internal moral debate about the almost-life-long vegetarian going back to her cave-woman instincts, but its all so amazingly delicious, I really haven't worried about it. It started when I realized that no matter how hard I try, until I live on my own here, I'll never be able to be a vegetarian. Most Hondurans don't really understand what a vegetarian is, so you end up getting served a lot of meat anyway, and then don't want to be rude by telling them no. I finally figured that if I have to eat it, I'm going to love every minute of it, and I have. I'm sure that once I move into my own house, I'll try to keep up the vegetarian lifestyle thing, but right now, I'm loving anything served on a skewer.
This week has been an incredibly full week, and I'm working on an actual blog post to send out – I'll try to do this ASAP. Until then, I hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Happy Birthday Katie, hope you got your card! Uncle Ken has been been busy fishing and last Thursday caught a 10 1/2 pound bass and a 8 1/2 pound bass the same day. Those are a lifetime big bass. All for now, will keep you posted. You are in our prayers and thoughts.

MEAT? - and on your BIRTHDAY!!! OMG I am certain the world is coming to an end. Up is Down, Cats loving Dogs... etc.
Hey, thanks for the call last week. You made my day. Sorry I've been out of pocket. Working TV in the mornings now for a while (go figure) and the film festival gig till 6pm... then whatever committee is meeting that night.... eat, sleep, rinse, repeat. :)
How's your knee? I haven't heard much so I suspect you'll survive.
Had an issue last night where my new car was vandalized. Yup... some jerk slashed the top. It was parked in the alley, so of course no one saw anything in a neighborhood FULL of busy-bodies.
If you get a chance, check out my myspace page... new vids up from local happenings.
LOVE YOU... HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the coolest kid ever.
