Not much

Hey hey, I´m gonna make this snappy. I just thought I´d throw something up here really quickly since I´m using the internet anyway.

So, let´s see...I am really glad tomorrow is Friday. I am finally having my burning hand condition looked at in the morning at the PC office. It doesn´t really hurt anymore, but their still red. I think I maybe had an allergic reaction to one of our many injections, but I am not sure. Anyway, then I have another session with the fifth graders in the afternoon, and then I might see a movie at night with some other trainees. Gotta catch up on that American culture,hey?

So, the other night my host mom handed me her osteoporosis test results (she had just gotten a bone density test) and asked me to tell her what they meant, since they were in English. Don't worry, she doesn´t have osteoporosis. Anyway, she was explaining how she and her siblings all have good bones since they grew up with cows and got lots of dairy growing up. Then she said she had a calcium buildup in her gallbladder a while back and had to have it surgically removed. Suddenly she hopped up, ran into her bedroom and came back with what looked like a small round rock. As it turned out, it was the calcium deposit that had been extracted...apparantly the doctors gave it to her as a "souvenier". It was kind of funny.

Anyway, that's really all I have time for. I hope everyone has a good weekend!!!
