Infrastructure Breakdown

When everything works as it should, you take it for granted. But when it doesn't, you appreciate it more.

Today we have a couple of changes to our normal everyday routine:

1. Our internet is down. Actually, every cable internet customer in San Miguel is down. DSL still works, so I'm at a new internet cafe catching up.

2. Margarita's was not here today. Her husband has been sick for a while, and it appears this may be his last day on earth. We can certainly deal, but we feel sad for her. She's been pretty stoic about his illness.
