Dear Blog,
I think it's the end of the world, and it is starting in Mexico City. I can't be sure, but I swear we just had a little earthquake, more like a little tremble. It felt like my apartment was swaying, and it sounded like rocks were falling inside the walls or something. If it was an earthquake, it wasn't very strong at all, but it certainly startled me and Monty. Nothing fell or anything, but it was really strange. I took Monty outside, and everyone was outside wearing their masks. I mean, as if it's not bad enough there's an outbreak of swine flu down here, now this?
Everyone seems to have returned to their buildings now, so I hope that means it's over. I just heard on the news that the earthquake was a 6.0 about 150 miles outside of Mexico City, but we still felt it. Of course, the swine flu is still a major concern. I've been eating a lot of fruit, taking vitamins, washing my hands obsessively, and drinking lots of water. I've also been wearing my mask outside. I am gonna take all the necessary precautions.
In other news, we celebrated Monty's birthday yesterday. His first birthday is actually on Wednesday, April 29, but I am going to the U.S. that day, so we decided to celebrate early. We gave him a new dog bed, and he really seems to like it. In fact, last night he wanted to sleep in his bed and it made me sad. I like it when he sleeps with us. We also gave him some cookies and a new steak toy.
I'll write to you again soon.
Love,
Jenny en la ciudad

do you give monty a mask, too?
yes, g-baby -- good question. do they hand out masks for little dogs on the street too? i'm glad you're wearing your mask. i'm curious how that went on the flight and need to make sure you aren't experiencing any flu-like symptoms now ...
