back home

want to know how to get your bags thoroughly searched by US customs? tell them you just spent a month in colombia. when i saw them put on the rubber gloves i was even more worried, but i'm sure they wanted to go there even less than i wanted them to. i was mildly impressed by their questioning however. they used a few slightly tricky techniques to see if i might be lying. i don't know why they can't seem to do that BEFORE people get on a plane, when it might actually be useful.

anyway, after a few days of R&R, the blogging now really gets going.

seriously.
