did you say omelette?
today's breakfast was probably the best thus far.
today's breakfast was also the strangest omelette i've ever seen.
a couple of times last week we had this pasta "salad" stuff. penne pasta, sliced up ham, onions, and celery. usually alongside meat or something. well, i guess Anna made a lot of it because not only did several of us eat it a couple of times last week, it showed up in my omelette today. that's right. :-) i think Adolfo wisked up some eggs, put the salad into the eggs, then cooked it. there were two triangles of it and tasted great. could have used some cheese, but i'm not complaining at all. it was good, filling, and not scary, so i'll take it again next week! :-)
suzanne or susan or whatever her name is didn't show up for breakfast today. either she was sleeping in (and is a hard sleeper at that), or she got up before Adolfo came down and left w/o anyone knowing. so i ate by myself and watched another "omelette" get cold.
have to go talk with Hugo now. hoefully i'll understand some of the words he's saying... :-)

Happy November. Anything special for dia de los muertos? Guess not or you would have mentioned it. I think that might have been what you saw the other day in the processional with the float and stuff. BIG thing in Guate and even bigger in Antigua. One of the fun events on that day is everybody gathers at a cemetary and they try to fly these humongous round kits that must weigh 50lbs or more. Lots of effort, not much flying. Very interesting.
Don't be discouraged about how much you are learning. This is a normal language thing. Since every day you are being bombarded with more stuff you don't know you forget just how much you have actually learned. This is part of why language school is so challenging and stressful. You never feel like you're getting anywhere - but really you are.
It was REALLY (freakin for you) cold last night so we didn't have many T-or-Ters. Brought all the leftovers into work. wish you were here!!
Learn a little - use it a lot!!

Just looked at your pictures again. I know, you're thinking, doesn't Jeff have anything to do at work?!! Well, really I do but just don't want to do it.
Anyway. You should publish a little photo album called "Doors of Antigua" or something. Makes me homesick to see all that.
Okay, I really do need to do some work....
