Well, as expected it rained yesterday. My poor car. It was clean for 24 hours, and thats it. I guess it looks more “authentic“ now. If it were as spotless as before, people may have gotten suspicious. We have a girl coming to look at it Saturday, so hopefully it will go good. It definitley has “charachter.“ The headliner started to droop last summer, so I am praying it holds on a little longer. I mean, it’s not hanging in your face or anything, but if you had big hair, it may cause a problem. Then, the front end has seen better days. Its a Camaro, so it has a front end really low to the ground, which doesn’t help. I have had it painted 3 times and it has still chipped some. I heard the more times you have to paint it, the harder it is for the paint to stick. I was an official “curb killer“ as an early driver. My sole purpose in driving, it seemed, was to seek out all curbs in my town and run them over. I have also had many run ins with animals (pretty say huh?) My high school is near a park that housed hundreds of prarie dogs. There were many a days when I would be running late and “dadunk“ oops! How horrible! I never meant to, it just happened. I am an animal lover, so I feel really bad. I also have a cat story that I was teased about for a while, but don’t worry the cat was fine. I promise.

Will got an email today telling him his visa is ready and they want us to be there no later than the 11th, which thankfully is a little later than we had expected. I think-hopefully- we are going to try and fly out on the 10th. Since I don’t have a job yet and am only on a visitor’s visa, my dad is going to have to talk to the traveling coordinator to make sure Will and I get on the same flights and everything (how bad would that be- flying across the world my myself!!? I have lived in the same place for years and still have to stop and think about how to get places.) We are praying we get to go on the 10th because that would put us in Kuwait on a Wednesday, which is like their Friday. That way we recover from jet lag (and culture shock).

My mom and sister left for Colorado yesterday to visit my grandparents. They fly out Saturday. I am already so excited to see them. My sister’s teachers already gave her grades for the semester, so technically she doesn’t have to go to school until the fall. I am trying to talk her into hanging out with me and not going to school during May, but I think my mom wants her to sit in some classes so she can meet people and won’t be completely bored when summer comes. It was worth a try I guess.

Tomorrow Will and I are going to go “miserable weather shopping-” not that they really make clothes to make you feel better when its 130 degrees. I have no idea what to shop for. Women can’t wear shorts there, but I don’t know about sleeveless shirts- I hope I can. I will have nothing to wear if not!

Have a good weekend!
