I screwed up my knee again. This time it feels like a strain to the connective tissues just above the outside of the left knee. It was very painful at times yesterday in class. This morning it was better but then I twisted it this afternoon in the living room. Sigh.

I just got a call, on Sunday afternoon, mind you, from the election commission telling me that I am still registered to vote in Santa Rita. And that the law says I cannot transfer my registration between the primary and the general elections. I would have to go back to Santa Rita, a place I no longer live in, to vote. She then told me that I could vote early at the Talofofo town hall even though I am not registered in Talofofo! Does any of this make sense to anyone?

Saturday I spent 7 1/2 hours in classes. Foundations of Secondary Education in the morning (3 hours) and Classroom Management in the afternoon (4 1/2 hours). The morning classroom was the coldest room I've ever been in outside of a meat locker. Even I complained! (To Wakana. I ain't giving the locals a chance to think I cannot take the cold...)

This afternoon the classic movies channel is running old Alec Guinness movies including The Captain's Paradise. In that one he plays a ferryboat captain running between Gibraltar and Morocco. In Gibraltar he has a perfect English housewife who cooks him roast beef and enjoys some domestic tranquility. In Morocco he has a hot Moroccan wife who stays out partying with him till the wee hours. It's a perfect paradise until... well, I won't spoil it for anyone. Plus, I've forgotten the details.
