I'm taking on a new responsibility at work. I'm going to be a 1 of 5 liasons between our bookstore and Barnes and Noble. They plan to take over the University's book store and run it privately. It's a wise move for the University because it rakes in more money. But it will mean that all student workers will have to find other jobs by March of 1999. That won't effect me, because if my plans go smoothly, I'll be settled into living in Holland. smile

That would be cool right!? Living in Holland? I'm kinda new in town so please tell me... Ever been there? In Holland I mean.. It's not that bad, let me tell you! I know from experience.

BTW: Have you 'seen' Rodion these days? His last JE is from the 14th... Is everyone burnt out and taking a no-computer-for-me-holiday? I tend to find sitting behind the ole tv-with-a-keyboard very relaxing! If everything goes right 'k!?

Oh, got some newer housepix scanned!

We're having a hard time (thank God) keeping up with the constructors. They're building faster than we can shoot our films and have them develloped. We've got two layers like on the top pic now and they're laying bricks. The bricks are as high as the front door already... I can heardly wait for the house to be ready!

BIG THING here is the World Championship in Soccer (the girly-sport according to the Americans). Tonite is another Holland match. 'WE' have to go against South-Korea. People are really into soccer over here. They paint their faces in the national colors (Red, white and blue (Like Rachel will probably be doing next year) and a lot of things are made Orange because that's the color of our royal family (in name). Willem of Orange Nassau. We are the champions...

I have to wait and see! I know Rodion isn't in red, white and blue over soccer. He misses a keyboard to go with his tv...

I'm leaving you again, mais ne plus longue,

Je retourne a demain!

A bientot!

Doc.
