It's a small world after all...

Yesterday evening, while I waited FOREVER on skype trying to sort out my new cell phone plan with Sprint, I saw a consulting request in my spam folder. I responded to be polite, but was a month late and didn't expect any reply. Within 10 minutes, I had a one-day assignment at my full daily rate with a new client. Yay!

I am shocked and amazed that I can be on the phone with a 1-800 number in the States, chatting on IM with John and also picking up consulting assignments while sitting on a porch overlooking the sea and being stared at by a family of goats.

What a teeny, tiny world we live in.

Shout out to Sarah (thanks for the postcard! real mail! Sweet!) And here's a photo of tonight's borrowed dress from the 1980 team....

Here is my day in photos:

Hugh (Professor Wescoat's son who has joined us for the summer) eating a Hobnob, our favorite cookie, at coffeebreak.

More coffee breakers (promptly at 10 each day).

Professor Marconi and his wife Rosalia, who joined us two days ago, exploring the Rotunda of Arsinoe. They are both skilled Spoons players, and Professor Marconi grabbed the last spoon from me in a show of strategy and cunning during last night's game.

The Hieron, one of the larger structures in the Sanctuary and the site of evening yoga lessons led by my roommate, Cindy.

Measuring blocks (sorry, the rulers got cut out.)

Ryan drawing blocks.

Our favorite block, William.
