Well, I have been out of commission for a couple days with a nasty migraine. But today I went to Alodonase, Mexico to do some Christmas shopping. I met La guerita and her husband there, they live in Mexico and he cannot come here so I go there to visit. It was fun but thank goodness I was with Spainsh speakers, you get better deals if you speak the language and it is easier to order food.
I would like to tell everyone that I am not sure that lack of border control is the problem that the governement should be worried about. When I came back into California today, I was asked if I was a U.S. citizen and what was in my bags, to which I responded yes and some turtles, a mirror and some jewlery. The nice border patrol agent smiled and said have a nice day. No I.D. check or looking in the bags. Not that I particularly minded the speedy exit but I worry about how easy it is to get in and out of Mexico. Now, this is a particulary touristy area and it was welcome back snowbird day but still, I said I had turtles, how did she know I didn't mean real live, turtles. I just found it strange that La guerita's husband cannot come here but I can walk around with anything I want and no one cares because I said I was a U.S. citizen. I am rethinking my career, maybe I should go back to school and become an immigration attorney or something. Anyway, that's all the computer I can handle for now.
