DAY ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY ONE

Well, I received my Spanish books a mere 12 weeks after ordering them. Good news is they did arrive safe and sound, albeit without the CD that was supposed to accompany the book. The plot line? "An old man has retired to his hacienda outside a small town close to Mexico City. With the wealth he has accumulated since leaving Spain at the end of its bloody Civil War, he is restoring the hacienda... If this all sounds like a Friday night television show, you are only half right! [Note: I love that they need to keep contractions out, but exclamation points are ok.] ...Distinos is a television and video course ... following a compelling story full of human emotions, the surprises that real life often offers, and the force of the human spirit."
Oh, Destinos, no puedo que esperar por tu alegria. De veras, creo qu mi libro es un poco facil por mi nivel, pero no es importante. I miss spanish!

If you want to read something that will make you cry, read The Last Post.

Where else could a red-blooded American boy lie, kill and cheat, steal, deceive, rape and pillage with the sanction and blessing of the All-Highest? Pretty Good Stuff, Brudder!
