Chica, My Cuban ass has gotten somewhat more Cuban, shall we say...
You have been such an inspiration to me throughout this.
You, and your precious Pilar, whose words I carry in my heart and think of every day.
When I have put on my pity party hats and popped a top on a Corona Light, I have stopped dead in my tracks thinking of you and your sweet babes coping with Puffy's Excellent Adventure.
When I have needed to strap on a backbone, I have taken your cue and strapped on some stilletos instead.
And when I contemplated whether I was really woman enough for a sexinthecity apartment, I ate guac and downed tequila with you in Hoboken (after watching some games at THAT BAR) and got my courage up.
Yes, Chick, although much, much younger, you are more often than not, much, much wiser. And I am so blessed.
