Sickness

Sickness is upon us!

Dan's been sick since last Saturday, and I think my amazing immune system might be wearing down because I'm starting to have more than just a cold. Besides that, we're doing fine. We might start going to a Bible study next week (depending on how we're feeling), since Saturday services don't exist here and we both work on Sundays.

We went to the DVD store yesterday and spent maybe about $12 on season 5 of Criminal Minds. We've been trying to watch it online but it's so annoying, so we bought it. It should amuse us for a little while, then maybe by the time we're finished we'll be able to buy Harry Potter bootlegged. People here think it will take a week at the most after it comes out in theaters before it's available.

There's a new teacher here from England and he's taking some getting used to. It's getting better, but at first I was really annoyed with him because he was either talking about the differences in words that we use (at first it seemed like he was asking in a way that implied that British English was the correct way to say it and American English is wrong and doesn't make sense) or how American's are stupid. He and the Canadian both said they would have elected Sarah Palin into office before Bush.


Here's a picture. We went to the store to buy snacks and Dan got these cookies. Look at the nice pretty packaging that shows huge cookies with tons of big chocolate chips. Now look at the actual cookie. Do you see something wrong with this picture? The cookie was hard, and had almost no chocolate chips in it.



About two weeks ago we went to the Lama and Confucian Temple. Here's some pictures, sorry I'm not in any of them, I had the camera. One day, I might take a picture of my haircut so you can see how they messed it up. I showed one of the chinese teachers and she said I should get compensation for it, but I don't think I could since I got it cut so long ago.

  1. Julie, I think their "Palin would have been better than Bush" commentary is pretty clear proof that they don't know what they're talking about. I'm not a huge fan of Bush... but have they even heard Palin?
