I´m home mí amor!

From now on this blog will be used exclusively to write to my corazon, the light in my life, Elizabeth Gina Villafuerte Carrasco! I have left her behind in Mexico while I try to figure out my health issues in Iceland. Hopefully she will join me early in the summer here in Iceland but this is not how things are supposed to be. I am supposed to be with my loving wife everyday of the rest of my life and hers.

Aaaaaah mí amor! I made it to Iceland. It was a 21 hour trip with a couple of issues but my body held it together and I´m now awake on Sunday morning after resting well with my family. It´s fresh out there but not very windy right now. I´m missing your touch and your face already! This is going to be soooooo difficult (but we are gonna make it). I know a lot of people who are married think that their marriage is the best, the most complete, but in our case, I think we are not kidding ourselves. We have a young marriage but it has gone through more in 13 months than most will go through before their divorce before 40. ;)

I love you Elizabeth Villafuerte. You are in my maldicion heart always and every moment. I hate this situation that we are in but as you say, it might be good for both of us. We both have to focus on what we need to do while we are apart and get these things out of the way. The focus we should have right now is to make sure we don´t have to be apart again like this. Because, as you know, it really sucks!

Today I will go buy a 3G mobile phone so you will be able to contact me constantly with messenger and hopefully we will have Skype up and running soon and we will be able to be in contact at all times. Even if we have nothing to say. Of course it is a piss poor substitute to touching your shoulders and smelling your hands but I just have to activate my imagination and hug my little fat pandabear you gave me for Valentine´s.

The apartment that we are moving into is really nice. My father and Bryndís have their own opinion but I think that is only because they wanted us to move into the apartment they own which is empty right now. But this one is nice, everyone has their own space, the living room is roomy, the kitchen good and the best is of course that we are close to downtown and work. It´s not very far from Holtsgata but still easier to walk to work and other places.

I promise I am going to walk a lot this time. i will not get a fucking car and I will just take care of my business. I am not kidding when I say our marriage could be depending on it. If I go to Mexico and feel shitty 60% of the time again, then it will be really difficult for us to overcome. That is why I will make sure that I do everything I can to deal with these problems so we don´t have to be apart like this again.

I will of course be in contact as much as I can but this blog is maybe a good way for me to leave you little things to read and follow me when you arrive at the computer when I am working or something. A good example is that in the Aero Mexico flight I was reading Newsweek magazines (I need to get a subscribtion when we move to Mexico). They are very right, capitalistic, republican bastards. But it´s nice to read it and use critical thinking and see how fucked up the thinking is in the US. There are also interesting non-political articles. I always read Time magazine at work but Newsweek really is more interesting.

-There was an interesting article about Barack Obama and how he is addicted to using his Blackberry phone. It was interesting because there is a debate as to whether he will be able to do his job as a president while using such a machine. There were citations into all sorts of research where it has been "proved" that the human mind needs a lot of time to concentrate to understand things that it is reading or listening to. If you constantly get interrupted by e-mail, messages or phone calls on your Blackberry, it is possible that the other info you are trying to understand, will only be half-understood. Also, they made the point that if you never get any time to just relax and look into the open air, your mind will not come up with any original or interesting solutions to problems. This, I found, is very true. As you know, I am that guy. The guy who is always watching TV or playing games on the PC or both at the same time. I fall asleep with the TV on and turn it back on when i wake up (I don´t know how it gets turned off in the middle of the night ;). My mind is always processing info and entertainment even when I don´t need it. I think maybe you would even go so far as to call it a real problem. I don´t call it that but maybe that is part of the problem. I need to take more time to just relax without any help. How about just looking at the sky and chilling. Thinking about what my honey is doing in Queretaro and finding solutions to global warming....in that order ;) Here is the article online: http://www.newsweek.com/id/183719 I recommend you read it.

I love you baby. I will try everything I can to keep us close using all means available to me and you. You are the best thing that ever happened to me and I will never let that go. Take care and I´ll get back to you supersoon!

By the way, Gallos finally won a game! But it was close. 3-2. Well, beggars can´t be choosers.

Besos!
