Faux: The Phoenix


I'm back! And you don't recognize me?  In another life I conversed with the cyber world through my blog maisouimaggie.blogspot.com... and then I went off to a new and magical world for awhile.  A much better one, really.  Somehow I found myself pleased as punch among the riled streets of Houston, TX.  Spend a day on the corner of Glenmont and Rampart... preferably on a Sunday night... and you'll know what I mean.  Talk about the hustle and the bustle baby.  I was a missionary for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints... and let me tell ya'... life was a dream.  I loved eating way too much food because it made Hna Nolasco happy; I loved riding my bike in the Houston downpour while wearing a skirt and a helmet and then wearing Hna La Torres' clothes while she dried ours; I loved listening to Angel's riddles; I loved family night with La Familia Baten and La Familia Portillo... I loved seeing each of the people I met get progressively happier... I loved it all. I don't want to leave anyone out so I'll just stop... but I'm telling you... I miss that place like mad.  Not to worry though, I'll be running back to H-Town in no time... Aug. 19th to be exact.  I just can't stay away.


So I decided to stake down some fresh internet digs with this new resurrection.  I'm not all that witty anymore, I feel, so this could be a short lived attempt and a quickly recognized failure... but I'll have a go at it.  However, it might be best to revisit my old blog if you're looking for a bit of humor... Really... that's all I have to say... an introduction to ... I don't know what really.
