i was at urban outfitters a few weeks ago and saw this cute book…
i thought of my mom and bought it for her. this week, for her birthday, i gave it to her. when i gave it to her, i asked her to take a look at it and see if she wanted it… because i knew she had stopped teaching chinese school arts and crafts so having a book for examples wasn’t as needed as when she was teaching. she told me she could keep it so that she could make stuff with her grandkids. riiight. anyways… today, i got an email from my mom:
Hi, Mei
I think, you can return the book which you give to me for birthday, after I review all of the pages, it’s really nothing inside, I can publish the book better than the person. Thank you anyway!
hahahah! i love how confident she is

I love chinese mom email. I never notice how bad my mom’s english is except in writing.

I’m debating still whether to go through El Paso, TX (have friends there) and then up to OK City (see connie) or go north through New Mexico straight to OK City. I’m planning to do a little geocaching to break up the monotony a little. I’m leaning toward the former because I want to stop by White Sands Missle Base. I’m up for anything so if there’s something you really want to see, we’ll add it to the itinerary.
I’m hoping to pass through St. Louis and then stay at a friend’s place in KY and then trek through either WV or VA back home.
