Another typical day in maryland

Hey everybody. I don't even know if everyone reads this anymore, but instead of writing an e-mail and carbon copying it to everyone, I am doing this. Besides you can't make nifty comments on an e-mail. So, where to begin in describing my exciting life. Hmmm. I am still sick. That makes me really angry because it has been almost an entire week, and I still have a cold. Grrr. I probably don't help the matter by playing tennis and staying up late to watch the NBA finals (both of which I did last night) but oh well. I started a new class on Monday, there are actually people other than Scott Howell in the class so that is nice. Variety is the spice of life. (I actually am growing to like scott so that is good too). One of the people in the class is a Kaohsiung missionary, he was in the same zone as me in jia yi so that is fun. We told some mission stories today. The class is pretty good. I was expecting something on a little higher level though. We just translate written Chinese all day, but everyone has a laptop and we can type the translations so that is nice. Other than that, not much is going on. I will start to work with my mentor on July 22, and he just sent me an e-mail saying he has work for me to do, so I am excited about that. I really wanted to do this to give me a taste of what it would be like to work at the agency so I hope I can get a good feel for that working with my mentor. I trust that everyone has recovered from your trip back east. Liz, are you and Joe still planning on comming back here? That would be super cool if you did. I think that Susie and Ann got here today, so I will probably go to dinner with them tonight. Cat, did you start your new job yet? How do you like eight hours of scanning documents? I bet it is boatloads of fun!! Well, have fun out there in Utah, I will think of you on Sunday when it is ninety degrees and ninety percent humidity. Ugh.
