...it took me two days to do the dishes from our Saturday night visitors, yes i did them this morning!
...i read the whole section on suffering from Henri Nouwens "Here and Now"
...i have spent way too much time on the internet doing nothing. yes the gap has cute stuff but i can not wear it in india so why do i bother looking?
...i had our neighbor from downstairs come up for tea and movie today but mostly we just talked about life...it was nice!
...i went to the broadway hotel to hang out with George and his english friends and i had so much fun darn it!
...i barely left the house today, only to buy milk for tea and a bengali news paper for studying. the guy i bought the paper from somehow knew i lost my passport and asked me if i got a new one--how do people find these things out?
...i got my new indian visa, handwritten, i am not sure they will let me back in the country if i ever leave. i had to tell the guy that the correct word was "transferred" not "transpried" for what they were doing with my visa.
...i did my laundry but not very well. sometimes hand washing a two loads is just too much!
...i watched some grays anatomy.
...i had an amazing meal with one our friends from the gach. she was so sweet and generous and made me think that i will never be alone here...she told me i could come over any time day or night while beth and kristin are gone. she does not understand how i could possible want to be alone. i felt loved.
...i am currently being bombarded with loud non sensical music from the loud speakers outside my window...these sounds will last till 2 or 3 am and will go on for the next week at least. yes, puja season is here and bad loud speaker music is the anthem of the rest of my week.
...got an email from kristin and everyone is happy and learning good things in nepal. this makes me happy.
...oh, and i gave myself a pedicure-minus nail polish removal (no remover), i just had to paint over the old stuff but my feet are really clean. And i gave myself a facial...i did two masks...maybe this was too much but my skin needs help!!

I'm glad you now have a visa, but yes, handwritten is always a little sketchy. i just wanted to say a quick hello. I read Kristen's prayer requests for this month on her blog. It sounds like there is a lot going on. It was good to read a little about some of the things that have recently transpired. With you guys in prayer.
