Major Thanks to Maya, and jealousy towards Mom

Maya thanks for looking at my profile for me and pointing out that little mistake I totally missed.. Small mistake so it probably would have stayed that way unless you pointed it out.

And MOM!!! U got pictures of Arwen I never gotal thought I've asked a Gazilion times. :( of course thanks to you I now have them :) so hence my little bit of jealousy diminished and I was happy that grandmother is so resourceful. She looks a lot like Kiona and that Sofa in the Back is the only way I knew it was Arwen and not her. It's shocking how fast she's growing up :)

Anyhow, I'm off tomorrow for my six day vacation out just sleeping reading etc.. I'm taking out my Koran so I can read some of it. I'm going to try to compare it's stories to those of the old testament trying to understand these people and they're beliefs a bit more.. As far as my language I can already talk better arabic and more of it then anyone else in the Company, which wasn't really all that hard to tell the truth.. still..

It's funny cause Iraqi kids always ask for stuff like Pens and watches.. All morning they were saying Bien bien cause they can't say pen... Even I thought they had just learned spanish somehow but it just seemed to convenient..

Of course Arabic doesn't have the letter "P" so they use "B" instead. Shop is Shob, Pepsi becomes Bibsi and "pen" obviously becomes "Bien"

Anyways, continue doing what y'all do and I'll be back in a week to haunt y'alls blogs again...

Don't miss me too much... :p

Hope you enjoy your expense paid vacation in the lovely desert weather. I hear it is great ,like Arizona, for anyone that has respiratory troubles. I hear they even offer the TOTAL cure. Everyone there seems so thotful!
