Refresher

Just a heads up on what I am up to

Scotty left! Now I truly am blind, deaf, and dumb, and wondering around Mexico to boot! Good luck with the maintenance, Scotty, you are already sorely missed.

Currently in San Cristobal de las Casas, in Chiapas state. Its beautiful, and cold, and everyone is a good foot shorter than me. My hostel has hot water, and yesterday I shaved the three week old growth from my face, and I feel like a new, albeit poor, man.

Stopped off in Oaxaca to see Sid and Scott (a different Scott) which was great, as they are resident experts at the city after teaching English there for the past two months. My car was broken into, and you´ll get the lowdown on that later--though I'll let you know now that it involved your's truly fending off hundred if not thousands of armed and deadly Oaxacan gang bangers.

Keep checking the blog, I'll get something on here soon. This laid back Mexican atmosphere is beginning to rub off on my, despite my (I admit, weak) efforts.
