back in the US

I'm working on a final reflection, but until that's finished I'm taking note of the things that make me happy or sad about being back in the US.

Things that make me sad:

• Rush hour traffic
• Drinks with only one shot in them
• The amount of money spent at stores with nothing but pet supplies
• America's crazy obsession with weight
• America's crazy obsession with miracle supplements like bee pollen smoothies

Things that make me happy:

• Restaurant food that comes within 15 minutes (or under an hour really)
• Icecream that costs less than $10
• Microwaves
• Hot showers
• The wide spectrum of skin colors and races
• Forests
• People saying they want to donate things to my organization :)

One of my most favorites from the year- the graffiti says "President Martelly hears the cry of the people"

Baby, baby kitties!
