I quick status update. Another half day today at school. The good teacher part of me hates half days. The slacker part of me ardors them. Today, I adore them. I am a very tired from a long weekend of fun. Greg, who is a mix of Zach and Andy, came in from Arno to submit his law school applications. It was wonderful to see him, because like Andy I feel amazingly comfortable talking to him and like Zach his wit and willingness to point out any mistake I make or character flaw keeps me entertained and on my toes.
Friday night I was able to get a cheeseburger with condiments. Real condiments. This almost brought me to tears I was so excited. Saturday I met Dan for breakfast at DAR. Then Dan helped me shop for a bike. I am hoping that owning a bike will let me feel less isolated out here in Woja. I am going for my first ride tonight and I will update you all on how it goes. Then Saturday night we all met at the local dock for the weigh in, because a couple friends had been out fishing. If you catch a Marlin over 750 pound you win $10,000! They did not catch the record breaking fish, but did provide us with a wonderful dinner. After dinner we all went out for drinks and dancing! It was a lovely time.
The best part of the weekend was Sunday. Greg and I woke up early and headed to the local hotel where they have a $15 all you can eat brunch. Spending $15 is so much money here, but it looked so good. It was. Greg and I ate, and occasionally talked, for hours. Cheesecake, pie, pancakes, made to order omelets and pasta, french fries, salads.... did I mention cheesecake? It was the greatest meal of my life. The best part was that I ate so much I was not hungry for the next 24 hours which made it not so pricey.

Hey, it's the witty fun-loving party guy with the critical eye! Sounds like you have a pseudo-substitute for the uniqueness that is me. I had an out loud chuckle when I read this post, and an attractive girl smiled at me. I think I'm going to tell her that she smiles at my thoughts, while my thoughts are about her smile.
Sounds like your ailments are on the upswing? Nice
I'm currently in a cafe reading for my thesis...WEEEE!
