Lo Ciento Mexico

well folks, i got the weekend off in mexico. apparantly, my client doesn´t work on weekends..ever. i´ve decided to not be ´stuck'. went to the modern art museum today and lemme tell ya, a little earth tone clay jar cubism goes a long way. there were some very very cool paintings though. saw some frida and diego. walking down the paseo de reforma, there was a great photo exhibit about mexico city around 1850. the photos were amazing, though i found it interesting that not a lot has changed since then except i´m only paying $1.50 US per hour for high speed internet in the metro that only costs 20 cents each way. a security guard offered some 3-d glasses for a couple of the photos and then bummed a cigarette. sharing salem black labels and reaching out to touch blue-red fence donkeys is mexico at it´s finest. next stop, the anthropological museum. this place left nothing to the imagination. everything i never wanted to know about mexico was there. they say you cover 5k if you do the whole thing, i stopped at about 3. it was strangely reminiscent of those film strips in social studies in that marta and juan were always milling maize in every part of the country and in that zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. highlight of the day... i bought a bottle of water and a lighter for a dollar thirty. gotta get back to hotel and clean up. gonna try a mexican antro and grab a few chupes tonight.
