SOME OF MY regular readers (I do not, at this point, necessarily refer to the bran-eating amongst us, though they are a well-stirred crew, I'm sure) remember the day back in August I casually (you should have seen me, I was sipping a mint julep as I typed) posted...

On a Jetplane, Pt. 717

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Change, Fear, YearlyKos 2007

TWO DAYS UNTIL MY PLANE LEAVES and a feeling of dread grows in my belly. I don't like flying anymore. The energy warp of the Fear-O-Port, the whole damn thing. I'm sure I was anxious about flying pre-911, but that didn't help things. Oh, I found the footage I...

Tension of the Bubble

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Outtakes and Remakes

PACKING. Exhausted. This is the tension of the bubble. Eating at odd hours and not enough. Soon to push through. She is working every day and since that leaves me with the baby all the time, I have once more come to appreciate even ten minutes alone. I think...

The 20th Day of the Last Month

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Change, My Life

IT'S FUNNY, I had a long post almost completed. But almost all at once, every ounce of willingness to be effusive and expressive has fled. So let me be brief: 1. going to meet with a landlady maybe later. seven pm. we'll see if she liked our refs. if...

A Welcome Visitor

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Hope, My Life

STRANGELY, UNEXPECTEDLY, grace has visited the home and just when I was sure things would crack up from stress here, things are different. Rudy and GF came back, but are staying out in the trailer. There is no loud music in the morning, and the house is considerably less crammed....

Day Fifteen of the Last Month

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: assimilation, My Life, racism

SO, TODAY IS THE DAY that the "family" returns. It's been so sweet having the house to ourselves. I can't even tell you. The first half day was spent on decompression, and my nerves are slowly ramping up again. I've been very busy but happy in these four days....

Memories of a Mexican American

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: My Life

SOME THINGS YOU REMEMBER when someone you have been living with reminds you, through someone else, not to "take their things" when you move out are: a) You gave ten animated disney movies to their daughter that you had in your movie collection for 17 years—because you thought it would...

Day Twelve of the Last Month

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Change, My Life

FIRST THINGS FIRST: Rudy and family are gone for four days. They took a vacation to the beach or something, driving down to the coast. Of course myself and mi novia were not invited. But I won't pretend I'm either shocked or hurt. Because I know what the deal...

June 10 and I'm Half Gone

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: My Life

BUT ONLY A THIRD OF THE WAY through June. At this point, discussions and activities in the blogworld have begun to fade, to jerkily retract, I don't have as much time between the baby and my work and trying to keep my little family together in the face of...

ALIENCHOLO: The Cosmos is Your Barrio

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: My Life

HERE'S A MOMENT between working and cleaning and sleeping and playing and even stressing. The little one is napping, and it's a moment so precious that I fear to commit to doing anything but sit and breathe. Because soon, the little one shall rise (O yes she shall), and...

BIENVENIDOS A JUNIO, we are now at day two of our "Month of Challenge," and when I say this, I do not refer to my challenge in coming up with a certain amount of funds in three and a half weeks or so...nothing so material (material and important, don't...

Skinless

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua , Parenting | Tags: brown pride, Change, My Life, White Supremacy

SO HEADLINING IN THE ALL-NEW CHRONICLES OF NEZUA is the fact that "The Skinhead" won't be coming home this weekend after all. Now, I know it's a bit dehumanizing to call a man "The Skinhead," and I don't call him that in my everyday life. It's really only how...

The All-New Chronicles of Nezua

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Change, Hope, My Life

THIS BLOG NOW TAKES A TURN and becomes a chronicle of Nezua's trek through the adventurous interstate Summer of 2007. Bound to remain fully rooted in the dramatic and ridiculous and philosophical and overzealous, yet perhaps to include a bit of journally type jottings, mundania from daily trottings, worrisome...

¿Donde Va?

Categorized under Chronicles of Nezua | Tags: Change, Hope, My Life

IT'S A GOOD TEN MINUTES I sit and watch the planks of wood that are my fence warm with the rising of the sun. The green mustard tufts of treetop recede to the towering fold of hill on the horizon—its a horizon lapping just at the edge of town,...
