The climbing treadmill is still out of order. I hope they fix it soon.
Last night I went looking for someone to go to church with, and I soon as I stopped looking someone found me. There are not many choices for services here, and the one I went to is not my style, but It’ll do.
Met an Englishman today, and listened to him for a while. I should have been British or Australian. They always seem to have a more relaxed attitude and better sense of humor than Americans.
I got a free cd from and artist named David Templeton. It’s all instrument and mostly acoustic guitar. I like it, I think if was quite a bargain.
I’m starting to really miss my wife’s cooking. There is a cafeteria here with just about anything I could want, but my appetite is not what it is at home. It seems to be only half of what it used to be. My wife was a wonderful cook, and she brainwashed me into eating healthy food at every meal and enjoying it. Imagine that! Today I noticed how much her female mind tricks had taken hold on me. I was sitting at the lunch table with a plate of onion rings, egg rolls and beans. I ate all the beans and started on the fried foods with ranch. I ate half and then I just couldn’t eat any more. I left me food, and had to find something better. I came back with half a bowl of raw broccoli, covered it in Bob’s everything sauce and ate. Not the best taste, but I just couldn’t eat the grease. If I’d been home with Ariele I’d have eaten twice as much broccoli and not even known what it was by taste. She can make anything taste good, and she’s never made a bad meal that she didn’t light on fire.
Dust doesn’t taste good. Jelly Beans do.

I love the picture of the camels...cool. I'm sorry that the food's not quite up to par, but so proud of you for leaving the grease behind. I wish I could still cook for you. It sounds like you've found a balance, a little grease, a little veggies, and some protein. The grease is going to be hard to avoid because too many people use it for everything, so balance and discipline will be the key to keeping your heart healthy. :) I'm glad you found someone to go to church with, sorry it wasn't our style, but glad you went anyway. I'm also glad you got to talk to an Englishman--I could listen to them and the Aussies talk for hours! I'm sorry the treadmill is still out of order. I hope they get it fixed before you leave.
Hey Bro, I'd miss your wife's cooking too if I were you. Her spagettii sauce is the best I've ever had, even at expensive restraurants. love you.
hang in there, eventually you'll get used to the grease! i'll try to send you some cookies. not exactly healthy but i know you cant resist cookies :) <3Mary
