Moctezuma has had his Revenge

I'm healing up very well from the surgery.  However, something new has hit.  Yesterday I developed a fever that kept climbing.  It got up to 103.5.  We went to the doctor and it turns out that I have salmonella.  I should have a fever with it's ups and downs for the next 5-7 days.  On the bright side, this was going to happen eventually.  The doctor said that anyone who moves to Mexico gets it.  Unfortunately, that means we're still not moving into our apartment for another week.  It's a good thing that we didn't go to Rome, though.

Other than that, things have been moving along.  Pancho has two more interviews on Monday.  I'm finished with my class.  There's one more class on Monday, but I won't be able to go.  It was very helpful.  I understand Spanish a lot more, there's just difficulty speaking it.  And I've realized it's a lot easier to understand it when someone is speaking directly to me versus trying to understand a group of people.  Perhaps in the fall I'll start another Spanish class. 

And I got to listen to mariachi's for the first time in Mexico!  It was Pancho's grandma's birthday two days ago.  There's a name for what we did, but I can't remember it.  We surprised her with mariachi playing outside her bedroom at midnight.  It was a lot of fun.  I enjoyed it a lot.

That's about it for now!  Unfortunately, no pictures.  But I'll try next time.  : )
