It's a boy!

Hi there! Long time no see.
I've become such a couch potato lately, I even went from obsessively checking may email about 3 times a day, to not checking it for days at a time. Jeez! What's happening to me!! Yeah, I know, laziness took over me. So be it. I'm enjoying it.

Anyways... big news everyone! I'm a quasi-aunt!! Ujuuuu!!! hehe one of my cousins gave birth to a beautiful baby boy today!

Well, this is the post I started writing a week ago and -honestly- intended to publish, but heck, I don't even have an excuse for this. I just forgot, and whenever I remembered I didn't have my computer with me, and so forth. Whatever, I'm not even going to try and make up something.

On other things, here are some updates of my life this past weeks:

• I met this really cool Hindu family. It's a weird story, you see, my parents went to an old friends' daughter's wedding and the groom was a and American Hindu, heh. Anyway, the next day the couple's family and close friends had a reunion just across the street from my house, and this time the children - meaning me and my siblings - were invited. So we met the parents, the brother and one of the sister with her family. They were so very nice people. We were very interested in getting to know them, because they are just so different to the people we meet every day here.. And I should tell ya, they seemed equally interested in us. It was fun, we even had them coming over to my house for an in-depth tour of all the rooms and everything, heh.
  
• As I mentioned at the beginning of the post, my nephew was born. Babies are weirdly funny sometimes. Like this baby, who I just call the son since his parent haven't agreed on a name yet, he farts. I don't mean little-baby-farts, they are grown-up-farts! hah I just can't help to laugh every time. Picture this: little baby sleeping, with his little teeny tiny nose, eyes, mouth, hands and just everything is so lovely and heavenly, the lights dim and the sight is a bit blurred to get the angelic-effect going on, and all of a sudden -FART-FART-. I mean, seriously, its just too hilarious. Anyway, the mum doesn't like it when I burst into laughing, so I'll try to put myself together (only half-heartedly, of course) Ahem... moving on.
• I went to the dentist mmm... not much can be said here, nothing really happened, just a check up.
• I attended 2 posadas, which are basically just Christmas-themed-end-of-year parties. (I don't know if there's a word for that in English, if there is, please let me know.) One of them was for the employees of the small-town hotel my mother and her siblings inherited. The other was of my architect cousin company, (not really her company, rather the company she works at). They were both fun in their own way.
• ...

Shit! I don't know what else to write. I mean, surely I must have done more things this past weeks. My life couldn't have possibly be just 4 bullets! Dammit! I hate it when I forget things I did. I guess this is what happens when you set yourself on stand-by mode.

I'll try to post more often. Partly because it'll help me not forget things or at least allow me to leave a written record of thing, but mostly, I'll do it for you guys. I know it must be torture for you not being able to read about my farting-nephew, or my visits to the dentist, or all the other exciting adventures of my absolutely amazing and interesting life. So there you go, there's no need to thank me. I owe myself to you, my faithful 2 persons who read this blog.
