1. I am almost 1/3 done with my Peace Corps service.
2. My computer black screened on Friday while I was trying to upload pictures of adorable barefoot children running around a track and noone on the island fixes Macs. (I find this particularly humorous because I had played with the idea of creating an entirely tongue-in-cheek blog where I would complain endlessly about all of the things the develloping world is lacking- mainly Mac stores and large cheese selections- and post sad videos about how I couldn't buy 90% cocoa dark chocolate anywhere. Now I have the perfect opportunity to do so legitimately.) So my posts for the next two weeks will be limited to using other people's computers and thus quite short. But the short posts will culminate with my first American visitors, the Sanquezes, and Independence celebrations which I'm sure will produce posts so long that noone will be able to bear to read to the end.
3. This morning I woke at 6:00 am (late for Dominican standards- people often call me before 7:00 am or just show up) to two men arguing next to my house. The one man was screaming at the other man, "I'll cut your Mom's pussy!" while weilding a cutlass (machete). Both of the men's mothers are 70+ years.
4. I bought several pounds of yellow fin tuna out of the back of a truck yesterday and then realized I didn't have any money with me so the fisherman drove me home to get money.
