Just another day...

Last night was adventurous. Tiffany and I set out to get outselves some dinner. Where she wanted to go was too far and we don't know how to get around that well on our own. We tried someplace closer but it was too expensive for what they were offering. On our way home with a pizza place's number in our pocket, we found somewhere that had quite a bit to offer (at least according to their signs). Turns out they didn't. So we continued back to the house to order pizza. I speak and understand a bit better than Tiffany, so we decided I'd call for the pizza. That didn't work out. It was a good thing the maid was still there. She ordered it for us and we gave her a piece before she left. I swear, we INHAILED the first piece. There was plenty left over when our Senora got home, tired and hungry. She hadn't eaten all day, so it was nice to have something for her.

I swear, my body has got to adjust at some point. Everyday it's surprise to see how I'll be feeling. Seems as soon as I think I'm doing great, I'm back down again. I think my alergies are acting up--hoping it's not a cold. Oh well, just part of the experience.

I'm getting frustrated with the food thing though. My Senora insists that I don't eat enough. I really am eating a little bit of everything and really enjoying myself, but I really just don't eat that much. I tried to tell her that my mom and I ususally eat ONE chicken breast between the two of us. So today we had fried chicken for lunch. Not exactly what I was trying to do. I know she's just trying to be nice, but I wish she wouldn't worry about me so much. Tiffany feels bad 'cause she eats so much more than me and she feels like if she ate less it wouldn't look like I was eating so little. I don't think that's the case, but... Oh well.

Today, when I was sitting in my room just before lunch, I was overcome with homesickness. I'm not really sure why it hit me then and why in general. Maybe it's because I have such limited contact with everyone in the states.

Shoot, there was more I was going to write about, but the directors are hungry and it's closing time. Maybe I'll have a chance to get to everything tomorrow. Love you all and thanks for the encouraging comments!!!
