Hi all, long time, sorry for the delay!

There is some, not much, to report:

1) John, my friend that held all the wonderful Shabbat dinners, has moved to Australia :(
2) Sarah, my good friend, is thinking of moving :(
3) Ranajit, another friend is thinking of moving :(

BOOO, you guys suck!

ok, on to good news:

4) Jeff has met almost everyone and is getting settled.
5) I have another vacation to plan- May 1st. It is labor day and everything in china shuts down for a week. We are considering the following options: Israel, Bali, Singapore, Philippines, some random island in the South Pacific.
Any tips? suggestions?

6) Jeff and I are frantically watching TV series...24, deadwood, six feet under, scrubs...OMG so much drama!

7) My dad has purchased his ticket...we are meeting in Japan in July and then he will hang with me for a few weeks in Chin-chin. I'm going to take a week and show him my hood (all of china).

8) I got locked out of my apartment (which was really annoying). I'm not exactly sure what happened, but all of a sudden my key just stopped working. So glad Nancy was there to sort us out.

OK, thats all for now.

sorry to be short, but there isn't that much to say!
