FUN TIMES
In the Shower

In our new apartment in Berkeley we have a glass door on the shower that is perfect for scaring people. Jennifer and I do it all the time. Not that either of us has ever been really scared by the other but it makes us laugh every time. Maybe if you come visit us we could scare you too!

Jennifer drives herself to work now – enjoying the attention she gets from old obese men whose catheters hurt and our squealing alternator belt.

I started my Chinese class this week. Chun Laoshi is a drill sergeant. She screams at us when we makes mistakes – but only because we are wrong and we are in class. She’s actually really a nice person after class – jokey with a purple-tinged buzz-cut. She’s just an overbearing grandmother who screeches and calls us bad names. Our books are all in traditional characters so I’m scrambling trying to keep up. It’s good.

We’re really happy with our lives here. Now we just need to stop spending money.
