Busy, busy

So I'm halfway through my second week at U of R...things are coming together but I am really concerned about Property! The professor is kind of "mehh" and always tries to trick us which is really demoralizing! Everything else is fine though.

Ben posted a very interesting picture of our apartment in New Orleans on his blog. It is located at http://volganotes.blogspot.com

I'm supposed to go shopping with Essie Grossberg this afternoon. We are going to try to find some shoes. Hopefully her chemistry is good today.

Tomorrow I go to DC to obtain a passport, since I left mine in my (presumably flooded) apartment when I fled. This is important so that I can get a visa to visit Russia in a timely manner.

Last night I installed AIM on my computer, then this morning in class I uninstalled it. I think its propensity to preclude productivity is dangerous. Plus, it was making my computer run rather slowly. BAH!

Speaking of the computer...it's having some problems. :-( I geep getting messages saying that there are corrupt files that cannot be read. So I hope the computer help desk people can take care of it before my Civil Procedure class today.

This weekend I will meet the Governor of Virginia, Mark Warner. I plan on telling him how welcoming his state has been to a displaced Katrina victim. Then I'm gonna eat some roasted pig! Please let me know if you have any other suggestions of what I can say to the Gov at the receiving line to make him remember me.

That's all for now. I plan on finishing the story of my evacuation and how I ended up in Richmond sometime in the near future. Spasiba. Ya tebya lyubliu!
