Wakana continues to gush about how much she loves her car. Last night we went to Agat to do our laundry and her main topic of conversation was how great her car is. She did talk about events happening in her classes too but mostly it was how happy she is with the car.

Our life is damn good right now. Wakana is so happy about everything. She loves this house, the cats and now her car. I tease her about not having any love left over for me but she then proves that is not the case.

Our weather has been very wet lately. Last week it rained steadily all week. The road past our house is pure mud. The mail truck backed in there to turn around and got stuck. The farmer couldn't reach his fields without walking in. We told him to use our back yard until the road dried out. He is able to pull right up to the field that way.

School is still fun. The kids can be a royal pain in the ass and I hate correcting homework and tests but every once in a while they come up with some weird idea that gives me a laugh. And they are very likable. They gather around me at the beginning of class to ask about grades or homework or some such. We laugh and joke and then get serious about the work.

Last week I got roped into being the adviser for the masquerade ball run by the drama club. I had to sign on to allow them to rent the hall and I'll have to be there while they decorate and later I'll have to be there for the dance. I'm not looking forward to that. I expect it will be loud and crowded, two of my least favorite things. With luck I'll only have a headache when I get home.
