  I’m in it… Weblog | (2)

  I don't want to rain on anybody's parade. This scene from Grey's Anatomy touched me a long time ago. Christina simply describes how it is when you lose your dad. And today was a reminder that mine is gone... I'll never get over it. But I am thankful for all he meant and still means to me.

  Plastic Makes Me Hyperventilate Life | (6)

  One of the things my husband has wanted me to do since I moved to the U.S. is build my credit. As soon as I got my permanent residence I opened a bank account, got a car and a couple of store credit cards that I barely use, but that I keep paid off.

The road that brought us here may not be perfect for the world, but it's perfect for us. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else, but here with you.

  Mario Benedetti Died Today Weblog | (0)

  Mario Benedetti, a prolific Uruguayan writer whose novels and poems reflect the idiosyncrasies of Montevideo's middle class and a social commitment forged by years in exile from a military dictatorship, died Sunday at his house in Montevideo, his secretary said. He was 88. Called "Don Mario" by his friends, the mustachioed author penned more than 60 novels, poems, short stories and plays, winning honors including Bulgaria's Jristo Borev award for poetry and essays in 1985, and Amnesty International's Golden Flame in 1986. In 1999 he won the Queen Sofia prize for Iberoamerican poetry (Associated Press).
