one down made it home safely. the best thing during research was probably getting to hold/read/have photocopied letters zapata and his secretaries wrote from 1914. also not dying during my very long commutes in and around the bay area. the most amusing thing was probably walking down the street in berkeley looking for a lunch place (i was starving) and having a 13-15 year old hit on me using "damn girl, you got a body like a black girl! thats a compliment!" and then walking away. craziness. overall it was a good trip and now i get to finish planning for texas which keeps getting pushed back since my ruby-sitting skills are needed here... bargle. i'm going to take a visit to the ucsb archives at some point too since they're here and apparently pretty decent.  ¶ 11:24 AM
