well, at least that’s a looming possiblity as i stop shaving again, grow out my hair and start wearing oversize cotton embroidered dresses, feather earrings and sandals made from recycled tires. and relaxing mexican style, if you know what i mean. i think i am definitely a giant hippie at heart. it’s easier to immerse yourself in that if you don’t have a car, cell phone or real schedule and find yourself buying bags full of vegetables in the open air market every week. sigh…

 it’s gonna be a sharp pain deep in my stomach when i leave. i bought my ticket for august 9th, yesterday afternoon. what a drag.

¡the II encuentro intergalático va! it starts the 20th and lasts a week. i am SO busy here that i don{t know how much i can go, but i registered and am definitely going to the panels on women. ahh!
