that was a much needed, relaxing vacation. even though she never reads this, much thanks to beverly joy "beaver" escario of the escario family for welcoming me into her family and her palace, for the overdose of karaoke, and for the ridiculous tunes in my head: "milk, milk, lemonade...round the corner, fudge is made." and "elmo wanna drive my car...yes, i'm gonna be a star"... haha. ah, good times.

damn, its december already.
