Domingo

I really need to find out who this Domingo character is ... Sunday is named Domingo, and there's also a Santo Domingo ... He must be important.


Check out this picture of the sky last night! Crazy, right? If you're from the midwest, you know what a sky this color means - tornadoes! Like a good midwesterner, I started looking for a cellar. Fortunately, I'm pretty sure they don't have tornadoes here - just volcanoes and mudslides ... just.


Had another mammoth breakfast this morning. Frijoles para desayuno (beans for breakfast) really stick with you! I'm hoping to be hungry again at dinner time - fingers crossed!

So I'm about 75% of the way to buying a motorcycle - I'm about to talk myself into it :) After all, it's not like buying a motorcycle has ever ended poorly for me in the past - haha! I've only wrecked 2 of them ... 2 for 4 isn't too bad right?


So, I started reading the Spanish Bible Nealy got me. I started at the beginning of Matthew and was pretty pleased and surprised  to find that I was able to decipher the genealogy! However, shortly after I got through the genealogy, I hit a brick wall. I need a lot more vocabulary! So, I decided to start with something a little easier - comic books en español! There's a comic book store una cuadra norte de mi escuela (one block north of my school). What are the chances?! It's called "¡Ay Robot!" and the proprietor is a gringo with a British sounding accent.

I decided to start with an X-Men comic and a compilation of older Avengers comics. They're much easier to read than the Bible, but still not easy. Definitely putting the old Spanish-English dictionary through its paces!


Now I suppose I should learn the word for "nerd" en español, huh? Just looked it up! Looks like it's the exact same word in Spanish! Haha!


Now I'm just chilling in El Portal Cafe with Erin! Time to do some homework ...
