third world

I am really tired. I had crazy dreams last night. I dreamt about the "Its a Small World" ride (Oh, we had some entertaining times on that ride on a certain French club field trip that happened to coincide with Gay Day at Disney). Then I dreamt about being in that movie with the SCUBA divers left in the middle of their ocean by a dive boat. Then I dreamt it was Wednesday, leaving me very confused this morning about whether I should pack my sailing clothes or not.

In other news, I am totally stoked about Peru. I need to stop thinking about it. I read this in National Geographic yesterday. I also recently became aware of this and had to contact our travel agent to confirm our domestic flights were going to be on Lan Peru not Aero Continente. (Its weird, I had checked the Consular info sheet pretty regularly, and it said it hadn't been updated since March, but then when I looked at it, it said as of June 1 it is illegal for US citizens to fly on Aero Continente, which happens to be the largest domestic carrier in Peru). Anyway, its always something when traveling out of the industrialized world. Last time I went to a less-developed country (Morocco), Sept 11 almost interfered with my trip (and I got told I was insane for going to an Muslim country a month after the terrorist attack, but I had a perfectly lovely time). Anyway, I have confidence that everything will work out.

I talked to Karen last night and confirmed she was still alive, despite her tragic lack of diary updates.

I'm thinking of getting my web space, especially now that I'm going to be taking a lot of pictures with my brand new digital camera (a Canon Powershot SD410). So, I need to come up with a domain name. I'm taking suggestions (I wish becca.net wasn't taken!). These are what I have going right now (boring!): beccablog.net, beccaworld.net, bexxa.net... I feel like I should give some sort of prize to someone who comes up with one for me without my birthday in it. You can go to www.register.com to check the availability of a domain name. I could always be boring and get cutrikohart.net. Dull dull dull.



Here's some suggestions that people have sent. Keep them coming. I kind of like beccaspace and pilesofrock so far..

Remember Me?


Piles Of Rock
A little bit of hope for the places I'll go, a few memories of the places I've been, and some humdrum in between to fill the white space.
