Papelucho Mi - Hermano Hippie

Now I have to go. Luna Marina is trying to teach the dog to meditate, and he’s just sitting there confused. Poor guy. I know how he feels.

I never thought I’d say this, but my brother Javier has turned into a walking herb garden. Last week he came home from the university—the one where they let you sit on the floor during class—and announced that from now on, his name is “Sol Naciente.” I told him that sounded like a brand of orange juice. He said I have a materialistic soul. papelucho mi hermano hippie

I asked Sol Naciente if being a hippie meant you couldn’t bathe. He said it meant you respect water as a sacred element. Then he put a flower behind my ear and gave me a bracelet made of yarn. I wore it to school and my friend Rodrigo said I looked like a curtain. But I didn’t take it off. Now I have to go

Well, excuse me for wanting breakfast.
