Quick update

Things that have happened since the last update:

1. Had a party at my place. Students cooked food. My place now smells like fish.
2. Matt arrived. He's the new foreign teacher at our campus. He's from Ohio.
3. Haiyan and Steven tried to get onto a local television show. Similar to Oprah, but not as successful. The plan was to arrive at Haiyan's parents home with a camera and resolve the differences between Steven and Haiyan's parents. Haiyan's mother hates Steven. He's foreign. Haiyan's father doesn't know they are dating. Steven and Haiyan decided it wasn't the best plan.
4. Judged an English drama competition here at school. My favorite was a rendition of Gone with the Wind performed by several of my male students in drag. The competition ended up lasting three hours. About two and a half hours longer than it should have been.

Tomorrow I will be judging a debate. Hopefully it's much shorter. Hopefully more people will be in drag.

Son: I did not realize you were in to the "drag" thing. There are several wonderful bars in the French Quarter where you could play dress up, and no one would care.
