Dogs and Teapots
Yesterday I had my official introduction to the Ambassador. We'd actually unofficially met in my first week, but this was the proper deal. We talked about dogs, my struggle to find a teapot and then we negotiated a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. It was very satisfying.
I am currently waiting for my groceries to be delivered. I will soon have pop-tarts in my possession.
My Embassy letter-writing skills are getting pretty l33t so that's a bit exciting for all concerned. I'm still disappointed that handguns aren't in the impulse buy section of CVS (a drugstore)... say next to the gum and the copies of People.

I remain shock and disturbed at the lack of tea pots. Can you not use your diplomatic connections to get one into the country for a reasonable price?
If you want I can pick you up one of those cheap Maxwell and Williams ones and post pack it over. I could not promise that it would be in tact when it gets to you, but you could probably glue it back together.
The word is I'm going to have to head into Chinatown. I also need a cheap wok, so hopefully one stone = two birds.
The cheese here is orange. A shade of orange really never found in nature. It tastes the same, but it disturbs me nonetheless.
