new this week

Corrie read that last post and made the point that some might think his name is pronounced "anus" rather than "uh-knees," as, in fact, it is. Good point, Corrie.

And that monkey that jumped into our car bit a friend's mom shortly after we left the park. Her fault, though -- she swung at it when it tried to jump in her car.

And I got pulled over by a cop for making an illegal left turn. The weird thing was, it actually was an illegal left turn, not a ploy for cash (I went back and checked). What a contrast to the Congo, eh?

And I'm getting better at French. Not much better, but better.

And we took a tennis lesson. I'm better at tennis than French (not saying much).

And we're hiring! Know any really really smart Rwandan analysts?

And we have friends. People made Mexican food for us TWICE this week. With tortillas. Wow.
