It’s Easter Week and as Catholics we’re supposed to go to Confession. I didn’t go, but here are some innocuous infractions. Committed recently or in second grade.
- I donated blood for the first time in a few years on Monday. My motivation? I wanted a cookie. Now I have a bruise where the needled was.
- I carry around a brush in my bookbag, but don’t bother to use it. I still believe combing my hair is a waste of time. Friday was the first time all week that I combed my hair.
- I’d rather have short hair, but el novio likes it long. To be fair, I like his hair long too.
- I’ve seen my roommate about 3 or 4 times in the last month. It seems that when she’s in town, I’m away and when I’m in town she’s in Costa Rica or Mexico.
- In second grade, I ditched a reading lesson with Mr. Cantu, the third grade teacher because I didn’t want the 3rd graders to make fun of me. I didn’t know how to use a dictionary or write cursive.
- I want to have a party just so I can play Ozomatli’s new album Don’t Mess With the Dragon.
- Since Lent began, I’ve had three dreams about eating tortillas. What should I eat to break my 40-day tortilla fast?
- I’ve got over 5,000 songs on my iPod, but most of the time I use it, I’m listening to podcasts. My favorites are This American Life, Latin Roll, and PRI’s The World GeoQuiz.
- I was really looking forward to enjoying the nice spring weather in Chicago next week, but it seems like it’ll be a cold April. Meh.
- I read for several hours at the Coffee Bean in Westwood last night after missing the screening of Volver on campus. Too many of the songs the baristas were playing were also on my iPod. Maybe my music taste is kinda trendy and mainstream. Oh no.
Mostly plain–tortilla con mantequilla (y poquita sal).
Go all out and dig into some chilaquiles, on a tostada, wrapped in a flour tortilla: a chiltostrito! If you’d like to market this great idea, I’ve got franchising information for you to read.
If you throw that party, I wanna be invited. I just downloaded the new album and am loving it.
