misplaced revenge

a quick review of this space will reveal my fondness for mexico; however, the relationship is currently being tested by some microbes that have taken up residence in my stomach. i will not go into any greater detail than that, but let's just say that el bigote is a bit fatigued and spending a bit too much time on the toilet. fortunately, i think i'm turning the corner towards restored health and well-being, and that my problems fall short of the dreaded moctezuma's revenge. regardless, i am getting better just in time for a 5.5 hr bus ride over to acapulco for the second round of meetings down here (although the meeting/conference doesn't start until next tuesday). as excited as i am about a couple of relaxing days on the coast with no plans, i am a bit sad to be leaving mexico city so soon. fortunately, i will have a couple of days at the end of the trip to spend here.

because i haven't been feeling 100% the last 24 hrs, i haven't had as much time to walk about and get any good 'stache pics. with that said, today's pics are going to be the first on this space that are non-stache related. my apologies. they are some good shots from a nearby restaurant/diner that i ate breakfast at earlier in the week (and the food has not been implicated in the investigation surrounding my current condition). it's pretty much the classiest decor ever. the funniest thing is that the restaurant was 100% dedicated to the motif and had covered the place from wall to wall with the mexican wrestling memorabilia. i like the dedication.

words of wisdom for today:

**a man with a stache does not fear street food, illness, nor moctezuma's revenge**
