defeated!

josue.

i got your e-mails. all of them, including the last one. i've been searching for flights to mexico ever since. now its late, 10:30, way past my liver's bed time and i can feel my gall bladder getting really tired too. i am trying to treat my body right, right in the eyes of Tori yes, but i am also getting up early to ski tomorrow! anyway, i get so addicted to doing those searches and there are so many sites that offer cheap deals, "the cheapest" in fact...but NO ONE offers cheap flights to La Paz, Mexico. i mean no one. I found us a really good deal to get to san diego, 285 to get there. then i thought we could find one for pennies down to baja. i was wrong. the cheapest i can find from boston to la paz is about 730 dollars. and that is just the straight trip...none of the sneaky combo specials got us any cheaper than that.

the moral of the story:

1) buses to baja from san diego
2) different destination in mexico
3) screw mexico, lets go anywhere rural, beautiful and cheap
4) save your pennies, no gifts over a dollar from china

any of these combined with number 4 will keep our trip costs under $900, otherwise i just dont know what to tell you babe. what do you think? i will keep looking of course, i'll probably even look tomorrow from work.

speaking of work: i got denied a credit card from the very own company i work for!!! someone had to do it i guess, and is it just a sign? debit cards and coin jars forever? till south america i guess. but seriously, how funny is that? dont tell too many people about this, leave that up to me.

my future posts will include stories and ideas about the following: revelations about work, this week's issue of 7 days, the center for northern studies, barack obama, emilie, and much much more. but for now, our bed is empty and i must fill it like you fill my head with love and ideas...

oh, one more thing, jo already called once since i have been back. she wanted my e-mail address.
check this out, needless to say we had not rehearsed this: http://www.boston.com/news/necn/
i think we are the second clip.

and i enjoy hearing about that crazy land, i think your body will experience some sort of shock going from uber-urban to uber-rural. cant wait to hear from you again.

all of my love.
your fine lady,
emily
