They have a mini outdoor produce market here on campus, just outside the Chavez cafeteria. Instead of having to stop at Whole Foods or Berkeley Bowl, I was able to purchase fresh Semifreddi's bread on Sproul plaza. This means more time at home doing dishes and all-around preparing for dinner guests. Yay! More time means less stress. *happy dance*

I got the Info response written, and did enough studying for Spanish so as not to make a fool of myself today. I'll get some studying for Spanish in tonight after guests tot off to BaGG, and in the morning before class. I can identify most of the major cities in Mexico, almost all of the major geographic features, and probably 30% of the states. I'll review and expand my understanding there, and work on vocabulary for Spanish.

Much less stressed now than I was this morning.
