Heading Home

After 24 hours of contemplation, I've decided that there's no place like home. With an unexpected week (maybe more) off work and the discovery of a $300 plane ticket home, I'm on the next flight out of Mexico tomorrow... There are a few risks involved with this spur of the moment decision including going through Mexico City and being on an enclosed airplane for 4 hours, but I think it will be for the best. I haven't been home in about 4 months and will only be there for about 5 days total when I come for a wedding at the end of May, so this will allow me to get in some QT with many that would have gotten the short end of my visit stick had I only come then. In addition, I am secretly stoked about some American staples that have been sorely missed while in Mexico i.e. Target, Chick-Fil-A, Marshalls, Raisin Nut Bran, and pina colada slurpees. At least if I die of the swine flu I will die fulfilled by the shallow pleasures of discount shopping and American junk food. mmmm mmmm good.
