I'm connected!

Right now, I am lounging in my dining room typing this post. Today my Internet was hooked up. When I was talking to the computer guy on the phone, he asked if it had taken a long time for my service to get hooked up. I of course said "Yes, around 8 days" and he said, "Oh. That isn't long at all. Some people have to wait months." I should count my blessings that I wasn't one of those. We Americans don't really appreciate our customer service. I have been realizing this over the past several years.

Tomorrow I have a meeting with the Head of the English Department at the University to go over my schedule. I can hardly wait! After that I have lunch with the public relations officer from the Embassy and then I have a meeting at the American Corner to discuss my classes I will be teaching there. It sounds fancier than it really is. What it basically means is that my work is starting. Finally my creative talents have a focus.

Well I have lots more to say, but not enough time to say it. Working with this new computer set up is driving me crazy. Here are some pictures I took when I was out over the weekend. I hope you enjoy them and there is more to come.

AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhh! I just waited for one hour for these pictures to upload and now they are gone. Sometimes technology is a thorn in my side. I will try again tomorrow. Sorry everyone.

How are you, Jaime? How about a small cold? I hope you'll be fine soon.

Yey! Congratulations on your Internet. I'm looking forward to hear from you and your new adventures!
