Leaving FINALLY

  As some of you know, I actually have been in Reno since January 8th waiting for my Brazilian visa to arrive.  What a fiasco.  But hey, it makes the adventure all the more succulent and outrageous.  Some great stuff happened to me while here for the last two weeks.  In addition, I will now be in Salvador during CARNAVAL, which is the largest street party on the planet.  It's two weeks long and attracts hundreds of thousands.  Also, Salvador supposedly has the biggest and best one (Brazil has Carnavals all over the country) coincidentally, so I'm sure to bug out in style.

  Now, with visa in hand, still packed and ready from freaking two weeks ago, I just have to sleep tonight and then do the whole thing again.  Only this time, I'll make it past LAX and into Brazil!  To all of you who I got to hang out with over these last two weeks, thanks for being around while I was without school or a job.  You helped my time pass.  Especially Amy, Rob, Josh and Austin!

  Vi veri veniversum vivus vici (by the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the Universe).  Keep shecking out my posts if you want.  Take care, live in love.
