Thread Name: BS: Settling in Guam
Subject: RE: BS: Settling in Guam
Very busy in the last couple of days. I downloaded all the Guam threads and sorted through them leaving only my comments. That pared it down from 925 pages to 354. I also constructed a photo album showing the things we've done since we got married. I took both to Copy Express and for $40 I got them printed out. We stuffed them into the envelope and sent it off to the jerks, uh, idiots, uh, the, uh, fine upstanding citizens of the Department of Homeland Security. (Why do I remember the Soviet Union when I say the name of that department?)

Anyway, we sent it off by express mail and soon they will have proof that we are a married couple. If any of you would like to have the same proof I can email the album. It is a word document, about 48.3K. It looks pretty good if I do say so.

Last night I broke a tooth. Today I had to sit in the Dentist's office for a few hours as a walk-in patient. Finally got a temporary patch on it but I will need a crown ($1000!) That's got to wait a while.

We were in the mall yesterday for Wakana to buy new glasses. We wandered by a store that we've always enjoyed and found they were having a going out of business sale with everything going for up to 80% off! Some pretty cool stuff too. We spent $40 in there buying presents for me to take home.

Wakana has a little extra money so she wants to replace the window air conditioning unit here in the office with a brand new energy efficient split unit. They are supposed to install it on Friday. Once they do that we will be able to work in here without sweat bands and heat stroke.
