9 January 2000

I've been in Guiuan for exactly a month now.  Pretty neat, ano?  (Ano means "what."  In this instance, saying ano is the Waray-Waray equivalent of Canadians saying "eh?")

The electricity came on at 5:30 this morning.  I was quite happy.  Until it went off again at 9:30, just as church was starting.  It's 1:30 now, and it still hasn't come back on.

I've been dreaming about going home a lot lately.  I don't know why, I'm not trunky or homesick or anything.  Last night's dream was weird.  I went home with Elder Wetenkamp and lived with his family in San Francisco.

Occasionally, one of us will turn to the other and say, "Hey, have you ever peed on a dead monkey?"  The other will respond, "Yeah, have you?"  We've decided to start a club consisting of people who have peed on dead monkeys.  It's called The Yellow Monkey Club.  We will search out members.  They must have proof, though, that they've urinated on a dead monkey.
