Just call me Ms. Sullivan
Well, it's been awhile since I last updated but I finally have good news...I'm going to San Salvador! Nothing like taking it down to the wire, but it will be 37 days of business and pleasure. Now when I talked about going to El Salvador with a friend she wondered what kind of goals or expectations so I figure I would write a few down.
First off I want to make miracles happened when I'm down there. I'm thinking a miracle a day would be good and none off those waffly or mini miracles, I'm going to go all out. But seriously I want to do a good job down there, to be able to support the office down there to the best of my ability and make the most of this TDY.
Secondly I no habla espanol. I sadly chose to take French in high school thinking Spanish wouldn't come in handy for me. Boy was I wrong. So when I'm down there I'm hoping to pick up a little bit of Spanish. Not only would it be good for me but I could hopefully pick up enough to know when my brother is lying to me when he tries to pass of a fake word as a Spanish word. If I'm a complete idiot I can always resort to a portable white board and write everything down. Hell, I'm thinking of doing that around here just so I can get my coffee made right at Starbucks each morning.
Lastly I hoping to take in as much of the country as possible, the land, people and culture. I've never been anywhere in Central America and don't know if I will get the opportunity to return. I've been doing a little bit of web surfing on El Salvador and there seems to be a lot to see and do...Ruins, national parks, coffee plantations, etc. I already have one tentatively planned with Pick-Up Artist. Where you ask? Of course the coffee plantation, gotta get my coffee addiction taken care of. I wonder if they do coffee testing like they do with wine?

Of the many spelling and grammatical errors, I think the "waffly miracle" is the best. That doesn't mean anything!
Whatever anonymous! "Waffly miracle" doesn't mean anything??? Take for example: a true miracle would be turning water into wine. A "waffly" or half-assed mircale would be turning water into grape juice. A miracle still occurred, but it just wasn't as great. The miracle-maker waffled in the clutch and wound up with grape juice instead of wine.
Yeah, so "WAFFLY" isn't a word recognized in the English language. Just so you know.
Dear anonymous, try picking up a dictionary sometime or you can even check "waffly" out at dictionary.com. Here's what they had to say about the word.

I've never seen more talk about NOTHING in my entire life. Speaking of life - GET ONE. The word "Waffle" exists in the dictionary, but "Waffly" exists only in the imagination of some lost soul seeking some meaning for its being. Just like someone that would construct a blog about BOWLING!!! What the....?!! And who is this "meth princess" and can she get me the p2p recipe? I'm going on very little sleep here, thus my reading these boring blogs!!!!
Carajo!!!! Let's get the party started!!!
Thank you for being a friend,
travelled down the road & back again,
your heart is true
you're a pal and a confidant.
And if you threw a party
invited everyone you knew,
you would see
the biggest gift would be from me
and the card attached would say
thank you for being a friend....
Once again, Waffly is not a word. Yes, the word Waffle is in the dictionary, but you aren't talking about a light crisp buttermilk miracle are you? Get a clue!!
to anonymous, meth princess and bored to tears- sounds like you three are the ones that need to get a life. Give raine a break. What makes you think you are so wonderful? Looked in the mirror lately? Enjoy your time there, raine. a long time friend
