Today we went to eat Chinese food with beto and Stephanie, they are very cool people/friends I met in p4p. I wish I had a picture of them to put up; I'll get one latter. if you guys want to visit their link, just type ollin.net, from there you can also go to Stephanie's (I hope I'm spelling her name right.)

The food was good. We took Quetzalli on her stroller. She is a flirt. My baby is always ready with a smile. Steph make her laugh easily, probably because she also flashes Quetzalli with a big-o sonrisa.

Alejandra and I also got our first cell phones, only because we are both gonna be going to school and we need to keep track of each other and Quetzalli. Pobresita, she's gonna start day care. I hope is not to hard for our baby.

Jose's still in Europe with Maggie (she just graduated from Santa Clara in computer programming). I hope they are doing well. He didn't really wanted to go, but since Maggie needed company, pues ni modo.
I'm happy cuz Rapssel agreed to live with us. She's an old girl friend (friend that is also a girl) I met in high school. Her family is moving to Modesto, and she doesn't really want to go. She needs her independence. Family is always good, but we also need to live in our own.

Alejandra is so fine. I know, that's kind of an abrupt thought, but she is. I'm in love with this woman, what can I do. She's got a hold on me. Bueno, se puso bien delgada with only four months after pregnancy. Not that I had issues with her being a little over her average weight. La neta, she has always been a fine strong passionate mujer. We do have our issues, but we are working on them. Creo que siempre va a ver obstaculos, el truco esta en saberlos sobrepasar. We still have a lot to learn about each other and about ourselves. We are young. Pero bien feliz.

We went dancing this past weekend. It was hard to leave Quetzalli with my mom and sister. She did not wanted to fall asleep. I was joking with her, telling her "don't fall asleep, cuz we are gonna leave you" and it seemed that she understood, since she did not fell asleep until 9:30, when she usually goes to sleep around 8pm.
The music wasn't good, we had never been to a club before. Alejandra used a fake id (hope the pigs aren't reading this). But she was able to get in. I had a margarita. We didn't dance, just talk and hang out. Time for ourselves.
Ale's been having some issues with her parents. They don't recognize it, but they have given Ale's brother a lot of privileges for being the oldest and for been a man. Pero yo no me meto. No tengo vela en ese entierro, como dice la gente. I know everything will be alright within this week.
Tomorrow is Junes birthday. I haven't written a poem. Is okay, I don't think I want to. All the p4p alumni are gonna have a celebration. She touched many lives. Una guerrera de las buenas. I'll take the picture I have in the altar and a candle.
Bueno, I don't really know who cares about this stuff. But it helps me. It keeps me writing, y no doy tanta lata a los demas.
peace.
la vida sigue
y la muerte nos persigue
