Internet has been down for a while. I don't actually know how long, but the last 4 times I tried to get on it wasn't working.

Some bad stuff happened since my last post. I guess I should say MORE bad stuff. First a student at my school died from injuries after falling/being pushed off the bus. Then on the way to the burial I found Dobby about 10 yards from my front door. So there was a second burial that day. It was really sad. Oh and one kitten is missing too. Never found it.
The feline count in my house is now down to 2. I gave 2 kittens away to students and will give one to a teacher probably next week. I'll be back down to one cat soon.

School's been a struggle. I started new topics in both Physics classes and the kids just don't get it. I feel like I have to dance around just to get them to pay attention.

Funny thing on the bus to town today... I was sitting next to some chickens tied up in a box. The fact that the chickens were there isn't that funny, but that I was sitting by them for over an hour before I even noticed them. Guess that shows how long I've been in Kenya.

Yesterday I told a student that "I'm not made of money" and he got really offended... he thought I was insulting him and wanted me to apologize. I didn't.

Perhaps I've mentioned the student that I have named 'Verbal diahrrea'... this is what a conversation with him is like
VD: You promised me a kitten. Where is my kitten? Should I come now to get my kitten?
me: no
VD: You promised me a hot dog. They are very sweet. I had a hot dog once. You said you would bring me a hot dog from Kampala. When will you go to Indiana? What will you bring me? I want you to bring me a hot dog. Remember when you called me 'Babbled Maggots'? There are whites at S and they have built a hotel. You should meet them. I told them all about you. They want to meet you.
me: do they serve hot dogs at their restaurant?
VD: no, but you will bring me one

...maybe not exactly but pretty close. Not sure what his obsession with hot dogs is all about.

Seen on back of a truck:
Father forgive them
Luke 22-24

I'm assuming they paraphrased.

that's all I got for now
