Goal!

News Flash!
We are going to Colombo! I was chosen for the fellowship on Tuesday (2 days ago). I received the email Tuesday night (at my yahoo address and not my CNM address - ??). I accepted and the next day notified my dean (along with my mom, JB, and Carol). So our work is cut out for us... have made appointments for the physical, immunizations, and have much more to do. But I'm looking forward to it. Unfortunately, this morning there was news that there was an explosion (land mine?) in Tamil territory that killed around 64 bus passengers. The army retaliated by bombing some rebel camps... but the Tamil Tigers claimed no responsibility for the explosion. I hope the violence doesn't escalate. It will worry people who care about us...
Now I have to contact embassy folks to try to get contact info for the universities and institutions I'll be working at.
More news to come. Yeah for us... the "lucky people"!
