April showers

It is raining now. The heat has definitely gone away.

El Presidente

Today we got to meet Vicente Fox, ex-president of Mexico.

What's weird

It's the end of April and we're on a university campus, but I've scarcely seen any students. Everything seems so quiet. Maybe tomorrow...

Priceless

I just saw an Under Armour commercial - using music from Schoolhouse Rocks!

Danger, danger

The same shopping center with the Boston Market (the only place within walking distance in this heat) also has a Banana Republic. At least I got a Mother's Day present.

Free advice for hotel contractors

Ever notice how, whether you're at the Travelodge or the Ritz-Carlton, there's always a towel bar hanging on only by the combination of deep screws, heavy wallpaper, and sheer determination? Here's an idea: reinforce the bathroom walls where it's logical to mount a towel bar!

Feelin' hot, hot, hot

Ate breakfast by the pool and I think I may already have a sunburn. I thought I had a small tube of sunscreen in the travel bag, but I'm not finding it. It's supposed to be "unseasonably warm" this weekend, but I may get to see a thunderstorm later in the week.
