Today

Today is the day that Dani arrived in this country. Today but in 2000. He's been remembering and telling all about it throughout the day...But I don't want to listen. I don't want to imagine how awful it was for him. He keeps saying that he came here for me and that someday he'll take me back to Mexico with him. I love him so much. I can't imagine four days... walking the desert...getting lost...trying not to get eaten...and running out of food...and water... and getting cacti stuck in you at every step...jumping into arroyos and then trying to climb out of them...he told me once that he kept watch at night so that the lobos wouldn't eat them...see they get close enough that you become so frightened by their deep gaze that you don't defend yourself...the gaze didn't bother him...just the sound...my Dani is legally blind...so he kept watch...while they rested...he didn't.
My interview went okay. The guy that did the interview is actually the one that is getting replaced! Can you say awkward. Raul the owner gave Dani the impression this morning that I have the job...just have to follow formalities...See, Dani sometimes works for Raul, but Raul considers Dani his friend...actually, everyone dose...including me.
I had a hard time sleeping last night only because I finally finished telling Dani about me. Now I feel I can tell others. Slowy...because sometimes the memories still sting.
Anyway, on another note, I figured out that all my stomach pains are due to the fact that for the life of me I cannot digest chicken and have a hard time with milk...but not cheese or chocolate! Yay! :cD I have to rethink all the meals I cook...most contain chicken. Dani thinks that Daniel has a hard time with chicken too. He has diarrhea after dinner...ie chicken containing meal. Genetics at work. But I think that Dani and I both prefer that they have my weak stomach and not his congenital glaucoma. That's life.
