Woo hoo! You’re going to be fabulous! My favorite part of hosting is that I get to make a fool of myself. What’s the fun of being a fool, if no one can see me doing it?

You’re going to have a huge crowd! Can’t wait to hear how you had to move it outside to meet fire code.

Break a leg, but don’t break 3 minutes! Hear you on iTunes!

I call it paying to be considerate. This check in fee has bothered me as well. Last week I learned that KAYAK.COM keeps track of all the fees for all the airlines. When you search for flights, scroll down the left side and enter the number of bags you plan to check in. In other words, you can find the real cost of your ticket before showing up at the airport. During my trip to Asia, I flew 3 different airlines. No baggage fee on any of them.

Hey Jenn,
Debb sent me your fiction piece, and, as I have with all your writing: I REALLY enjoyed it.
Not bring a writer, I can’t make any worthwhile comments about the things writers know and
care about, but as a reader, I can tell you that I really enjoyed–as I’ve always enjoyed your
writings. And, I’m glad you updated your blog, too.

Hope yr well and that life in ABQ is filled with wonderful experiences.

Nancy

Saludos desde Planet Mexicali!

I just saw your page on San Diego Writers website. I see you are an MFA student. I’m finishing up mine UC Riverside. I like your garden. In my backyard I have a “huerto” de chiles…

Please accept this letter as a call for submissions to our exciting new border magazine – Planet Mexicali.
My name is Jay Lewenstein. By day I teach community college English composition classes and by night, I am a writer. Please check out my most recent publications this past year in the Chariton Review, Rambler Magazine and the latest edition of Norton’s anthology for Best Creative-Nonfiction Writing 2009.
I write about the border, and with this entry into online publication, I look forward to bringing my students and readers to an exciting and motivating place, this constantly emerging, always moving, awe-inspiring geography and culture looming in the shadows of the iron fence that divides the U.S. and Mexico.
I read both the Mexican and Gringo sides of Tijuana, Mexicali, Yuma and Juarez. I like Paco Ignacio Taibo and Charles Bowden and Maria Amparo Escandon. In our first issue look for poetry from Mexicali’s own Gabriel Trujillo Muñoz, and a book review of Kem Nunn’s Tijuana Straits by yours truly.
Here I ask you and your writing friends to get involved. Would any of you be interested in submitting fiction, nonfiction or poetry for our first issue to be published in February, 2010? Send us your experience and your passion.
Attached to this email, I have copies of our cover and submission guidelines.
For further information, contact me by email: jay@planetmexicali.com
Paz,
Jay Lewenstein

P.s. I don’t know how to send attachments here, so you can check out our magazine conver and submission guidelines at planetmexicali.com. (It’s a work in progress. We hope to get our first issue done over the winter break)

The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.

Up, up, and away! awesome. And sleep driving on no coffee… sounds scarier than texting at the wheel. Glad you arrived safely.

Great photos. I did not know you could embed a Flickr gallery into a blog now. That is super cool!
