Good News, Bad News, & On the News

Just a few project-unrelated updates while there's internet within reach:

1. Most importantly, (well, importance-level may vary depending on who is reading) my dog has a name! Por fin. For the past month, she's been living with multiple names (thank you to Dominican neighbors, family and PC friends for helping!) and name changes (thanks to my hesitancy to commit).  Basically, she's been called a lot of names and responds to all of them, poor thing. I've tested out just about every name from: dog websites, friends' suggestions, family's suggestions... and even went as far as trying tiguere-inspired catcalling names just for fun (more specifically: Rubia, Bonita, Linda, Bella, Mami, Princessa) - but all that felt a little too strange. A month later - her name is Minnie. (pictures of Minnie in the posts below this one).

2. My camera has mysteriously stopped working. For no particular reason it has quit taking awesome pictures or just regular pictures altogether. Until I fix it find someone in town to fix it, there won't be any recent pictures on here - just a lot of boring words. :)

3. Tomorrow I'll be on our province's regional news! I was told that you can see it from the States on this website: www.universalcable.com.do at 7:30AM tomorrow. So if by chance you wish to add live Spanish news from northwestern Dominican Republic to your early morning, now you know where to go.

okay, cuidense!
