My attorney informs me that any trips I make to Tijuana in the near future are going to have to be of the illegal – sorry – undocumented variety as our southern border remains closed to nonessential travel until at least August 21.  This news darkened today’s mood rather precipitously.  This is, as you can imagine, most cherished reader, devastating news when it comes to my August bullfighting/tequila-drinking plans.  Well, shit.
