Good stuff

This past weekend was a good one. Why?

1) It was a three-day weekend, as Friday was Admission Day. I think this was the second holiday of August. But for those of you who are jealous - just think, my next holiday is Labor Day, and after that, I have to wait all the way until the beginning of November for the next holiday - Election Day. This is tough for someone who has become accustomed to a holiday every few weeks.

2) On Friday, we went to the Made in Hawaii Festival, where Sam won the drawing for an opportunity to stand in a booth of flying money, where he caught $42 in 20 seconds.

3) I finished Ruhi Book 7. I feel compelled to do Book 6 again, as I took it five years ago, but I'm ready to tutor Books 1 through 5.

4) Three members of the Mojgani clan were reunited. My mom has returned from her two years of teaching English in China, my youngest brother is "home" from Minnesota, and my dad has a loud house again. Sure, I'm not there to take part in the festiivities, but it's nice to know they're together. Such Mojgani mass has not been achieved in New Orleans since December.

i read item number one as "..........where Sam won the drawing to for an opportunity to stand in the booth a of flying monkey....." which would make anyone's weekend pretty exciting, i'm sure!

That -would- be exciting. Maybe this coming weekend.... At a Wizard of Oz themed party?

...and loud it is. Poor Parviz. His 2-year routine is becoming frayed. He's happy I'm home but rather distraught at the growing evidence of such - the unpacking of 100 pounds of luggage items.
