Okay.

I got to talk in depth with at least two other people, so that's great.
Well, one other person, and one I mentioned earlier.

I had a long "chat" with Monkey, and that was wonderful...I really do wish we had a month or so to catch up. I miss things I didn't even know I missed in his friendship.

And I had a good talk with mom. We had another of those dinners that started out, "Here is our daughter in the PC in Lesotho," which made me answer the same questions over and over again. I'm SO SICK OF IT. Arg. I hate, sometimes, mostly on vacation, working a job I can't ever get away from. "I am the job," as I heard in Miss Congeniality today. (I can't spell anymore, either.)

But it was good...worked through a few things...or at least made ourselves clear. I can, at the least, attribute to her the ability to have these kinds of conversations...her and Chris. The "I appreciate..., but I don't like...," conversations. She just takes everything so personally. If I took everything so personally, I'd have killed myself by now...these Basotho aren't so accomodating as I am. But anyway. I hope nothing but good came of that.

There's a couple from Holland here...they live in Amsterdam and said I absolutley have to go there, so I hope I now have a contact...hehe. If I get nothing else from the PC, it's contacts all over the globe.

And I've pissed these workers here off by staying up too late, so I should go. I hope to see ya tomorrow. We shall see.

And I got texts from Anthony tonight, too. So funny. He's a doll. I can't wait to see him again.

Thanks for putting up with me.

Love always,
