I know what you mean...I find that that can actually get a little confusing so I end up having to read sections like that twice. I think its because that kind of writing is not something you see...

I was particularly attracted to the title "O, Amigo" for some reason. I really liked it, I'll never think of Mexican food in the same way again. I especially liked how you called the tomatoes "love...

I really enjoyed it! Its very fast-paced and definitely keeps my attention!

Some things I noticed:

Writing in this stream-of-consciousness style is really really hard (IMO) and you pull it off...

I'm glad you don't think I'm a walking cliche'! It would be an even scarier world if cliche's could walk. I'm actually not a walking anything right now because I just had surgery on my right foot....
