A note on Bilingual-ism


EVERYONE SHOULD SPEAK SPANISH AND ENGLISH.
A. it is not hard
B. it opens up a lot of new venues for cracking jokes
C. bilingual conversations are more fun

and let's face it, Mexicans and Estadounidenses (those of us from the good old US of A, not "Americans", we're all Americans, thank you) aren't going to be able to avoid each other much longer. As my Ciencias Politicas Profesora was kind enough to point out, Mexico is taking back what it lost to the US in the Mexican American War. (hahaha, no, but seriously.)

In other news, I'm going to Mexico City this weekend, whereeee... GAY MARRIAGE IS LEGAL! matrimonio homoseuxal. Even sounds sexier in Spanish (see how fun it is to be bilingual?!) So, shame on you Maine, the capital of a country where women can't even dance together in clubs LEGALIZED GAY MARRIAGE AND YOU DIDN'T. Anyway, I found the only rainbow flag in the state of Puebla today, it's painted on the side of a sketchy building that's seemingly always closed. Nothing like a thriving, open gay community, right?

A picture of said lovely bandera is at the top. It's over on the right hand side. Might have to zoom in.

peace amorcitas
