hello.hello.hola.

Jeremiah has gone home.
I will spend today doing laundry, scrubbing corners, sending emails . . .
and doing all those things that
get left undone when guests are around and I have better things to do like:

• go to the zoo (that gorilla is amazing - he gets me every time)
• race rowboats at the chapultepec pond (huh.  I'm way slower than I thought I would be)
• souvenir shop for Jeremiah's bike shop connections (remember his connections?  he's got to keep everyone happy)
• talk about all of Miah's genius ideas to make his bike shop the awesomest bike shop in town
• talk extensively about the communication differences between someone who tends more towards being an introvert (Miah) and someone who tends more towards being an extrovert (me) . . . I obviously got the upper hand since we talked extensively about those things; Miah is a kind, patient brother.

I kind of like it that my day will be filled with tasks of the mundane sort - - it allows me to dwell a little bit longer on those times and conversations.
