Thread Name: BS: Settling in Guam
Subject: RE: BS: Settling in Guam
I'm home again. And feeling exhausted. The flights home were all nightmares except for the last 3 1/2 hours. I arrived last night about 1:00 AM and spent too long getting through immigration and customs because of the rifle.

I don't know if I mentioned it before but my father once gave me a WWII Japanese Model 99 Arisaka 7.7 mm rifle complete with bayonet. I am loaning it to the War in the Pacific Museum they just reopened here on Guam. The inspector had never had to deal with a weapon coming into Guam that wasn't for personal use.

I slept most of the day and still feel tired. It's 9:00 PM and I just want to go back to bed. But I got off my butt long enough to go up to the school to get my texts for my new classes. It turns out I will not be teaching history after all. I am scheduled for five U. S. Literature classes and one composition class. Not so bad. I've already taught comp so I will have some idea of how to do that.

I'm going back to bed.
