After three weeks of school and late night snacks I have discovered some of my favorite words:
Tiliches for example... My husband likes to say no quiero basura... :)
Do you know what tiliches means?
I have become quite an active member of the spanish class and I usually have something very funny to say, like:
"Como se llama sus esposas?" seriously... i knew it was funny!!!!!!!
I like to share these things with Victor before we go to bed... he thinks I'm crazy.
Any way, last night after class I had to have a snack and I had Victor drive me to the local fast food joint and get me three chicken soft tacos and a churo. I shared with him the funny things that I said in class while we were out.
I am not sure if it is the late night snack or the spanish class; my dreams have been in spanish and I wake up thinking in spanish... :)
So, if I burst out in spanish dialogue just know that I have completely immersed myself in the language.
As writers, we need to draw from our experiences and find ways to infuse who we are into the stories we tell. Julia Cameron, the author of the Artist's Way, states: "We must write from love and we must choose those to read us who read from love: the love of words. The love of naming our experience must finally be the guiding force in what we put on the page."

That's awesome! And no, I don't know what tiliches means. Please explain. :)
in Oxnard it used to refer to "junk"...
In Mexico it used to refer to "clothes"
So I guess I don't want any junky clothes.
