Important Amendments

I was refilling my waterbottle when I realized how lame my last post was, its just that I wrote it while trying to also listen to the NPR Pop Culture podcast- it had this interview with Jane Lynch- love her. Followed by a sub-par Ashley Judd interview at Harvard about how brilliant she is-yawn, don't listen to it. But the point is, I couldn't concentrate because I was absorbing popular culture.

(Jane Lynch)

But I'm here now and ready to write.

1) Jan. Jan is a "gringa viejita"- little old white woman. And I have no idea how she is part of this sewing class, and neither do Dani or Lucre, and it seemed almost as if she herself didn't know. She can't really speak Spanish, and she just sat there eating brownies. The way Dani explained it (translated por mi) "I don't talk to her, because if I do, she responds in English. And she can't really understand Spanish." So really, there's just this woman completely reminiscent of Happy Gilmore's grandma sitting amount the housewives of Turrialba.



2) These women are sitting there, joking and having a great time, sipping coffee and tea and I was wondering if they even sewed. Or if "sewing class" was just a cover for them to hangout. Then I went to the bathroom. Everything was sewed to match, and I regret not being able to take a picture to show you. The toilet cover, the wall hanging, random pillows sitting on the back of the toilet. Yeah, pillows on the toilet! So this was no joke, the house of a woman who can sew.
