Some quick thoughts

1. I saw an ex-girlfriend from high school. She was a Rosetta Stone model in lesson unit 3 that said "Si yo tuviera espacio en mi mochila, llevaria tu camera," to a very masculine arm and hand holding a camera. The interesting part isn't that I'm sure I saw an ex-girlfriend as a Rosetta Stone model, but that even as a language teacher she was still hitting on other guys.

2. My packed duffel bags feel like they are staring at me. Like they contain a secret or an inside joke on me. They are laughing at things I should have packed and all the things they know I didn't.

3. I bought two Wyoming coffee mugs and Wyoming post cards as gifts for my host families. I think my favorite thing about the coffee mugs is that even though they are two completely different coffee mugs with completely different collages of Wyoming pictures, they were both able to capture the noble and stoic profile of the mangiest antelope in all the land.

4. And my last quick thought is a practical one just to keep the theme of the blog rolling. Kevin from Armenia told me that Armenian borscht is made from cow knuckles and cow head. He told me that to successfully eat a bowl of Armenian borscht the bottle of vodka that accompanies it must be consumed entirely as well.
