Espero que usted goce su visita a México. Por favor, trae mí apoyo una botella del tequila más fino disponible. No permita su nalgas para llegar a ser quemado al sol.

25. You must be really excited....
If you remember I live in Mexico and the weather has been great! I have all the doors open and enjoying the tropical breeze. Last week was nasty cold here and I was a little worried that your trip might be ruined. Have a great time and drink plenty of Tecate instead of water. Also, the weed here is excellent and dirt cheap! :smoke:

32. there are but i won't be logging in
this is my annual DU break and its well worth it. i absolutely LOVE DU but 365 days of fighting leaves one drained.

this is my excuse to clense my mind and body and stay away from places like GD. its very easy to walk away when we are down there and i always come back COMPLETELY refreshed and ready to jump right back into the fray.

i get all the news down there: CNN, BBC, etc... and watch it nightly but concentrating on more 'pleasurable' things for 7 days is mind-blowingly cleansing.

see ya in a week :hi:
