Dear Blog,

Now that I have internet access, I can write to you whenever I want. Right now, I am watching BBC news and listening to them talk about the economic crisis in the U.S. It sounds pretty bad.

I think that Monty is jealous of my computer. Ever since yesterday, I have had my laptop in my lap, instead of my beagle. Today, he even rested his head on my keypad. Poor guy can't compete with the Internet.

I haven't had a very exciting day so far. Juan dropped me off at work around 8:30 this morning. I started my day in the toddler room. It is my week to do circle in the morning, so I greet the children as they come in. I sang some songs with the kiddies, did some fingerplays...you know, the usual. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at my school, one of the children brings lunch for everyone. Today, we enjoyed a well-balanced meal of donuts and fruit. The food pyramid would be proud.

After work, I took the pooch for a walk around the block. Monty is such a drama queen. When I get home, he cries and wiggles around for about 10 minutes. As he is doing this, he retrieves all of his toys (one by one) from his crate and carries them around with him. It's all about the drama.

Well, Juan and I are gonna go get some dinner. He's feeling like chicken fajitas.

Much love,
Jenny en la ciudad
