Hi umm ooh, I liked the story. When I was in the third grade Our class wolud write letters to kids in mexico. It was like a pen pal thing. The way your story reads reminded me of how those letters were written. the sexual content made it hilarious because i kept picturing the girl to be like 12. Maybe you should set it up as a letter or something. i'm moving to Seattle in June, hope your still around.Ryan

No seriously, it was supposed to read like a police report or something. Glad you, err, kinda liked it.

About the beers, well they tell me its dangerous to mix heroin with alcohol but what the hell you only die once.

Well sorted of like a 12 year old mexican girl. it's a personal narrative right? So it shouldn't read like the sloth it should read like it was written by the character. and it does. I guess it wasn't clear, but i like the story! Just made me think of the pen pal thing. Which is good isn't it? I was able to connect it with something in my life. thats one of the keys to story telling, the audience has to identify somehow.
