Anyway, I think I’ve been here too long. This little town is okay, but…. I could make a list here but it would just be boring and I’m bored enough as it is. Suffice it to say, Catemaco is just not right for me. One more month and then I’m outta here, a couple of weeks in the US doing taxes and seeing folks, then on to Australia for a bit.

But right now, I’m freaking out here in Catemaco. Bought some little external speakers for my computer and I’ve got them cranking. Today I wanted some good ole USA rock ‘n roll. So, I’ve been dancing around the place playing Don Henley’s “Get Over It” and Shooter Jennings “4th of July.” It’s good exercise for an old man. 🙂
