Check it out! I’m keeping my promise. I bet you all thought I wouldn’t. I was wondering how I would do my T-Day spectacular all of yesterday and I decided that I would simply do a time-breakdown entry. Every time something big happens, I’ll note the time and upload the info here. I’m going to point out that my brother and father have been up since some ungodly hour working on something experimental so I may have missed some important thing happening. I’ll be taking photos of the birds and the food and everything else going down. (more…)

In Mexico, retirement plans are different from those in the States. In the US, I believe that a person has to work until they are sixty-five years old. However, Mexicans do it differently. After a certain number of years, a person is allowed to retire. I’m not really sure what the number is but that’s how it works. Tonight, I was at a celebratory party for one of my aunts who was retiring. For the past seven years, she had been working as both an elementary school teacher, but also as a school principal at another institution.
