Hey everyone! I arrived to training safely. It is cool and breezy here in New York -- which is a good thing since there are no air conditioners. Talk about training. Training for what Africa will be like! I've met some really neat people here -- many I hope to visit in the future! What they keep making fun of the most, though, is my "Southern" accent. (Which I didn't think was so evident. But apparently it is. Especially when you have people from Chicago around you!) I'm here for two weeks, and can receive mail. Email me and I'll let you know what the mailing address is. I'd love to get mail during dinner! (Hint hint) ;) I also have a cell connection, which I didn't think I'd have. For once, thank you Cingular! So you can still call me. Love you all!
Oh, and if I don't get around to it, Happy Birthday tomorrow Becky!

Hey girl! Hope you are lovin' that cool weather :) And yes, you DO have a southern accent. Embrace it. So, I have been getting ready for the girls to move in this week and have found some more Shan stuff. I'll put it in boxes for you.
Where are the pics girl?? I wish I could be in NY, always wanted to go and one day I will. I would offer to send you some southern food but I don't think you'd want me to cook for you. But I'm really good at take out!!! One question...do you think they talk funny?
Thanks for the birthday wishes Shannon!
