Jamie Doom...

answers his own rhetorical questions.

Hello out there. You people really need to quit visiting my site when I'm not posting anything. It makes me feel guilty to look at the counter and realize that the same four people that visit my site (evidentally sixty-three times a day) are seeing the same thing every single day. I am in Hangzhou now. I have moved in to my apartment (nice digs). I begin teaching at ZUCC on Monday 2-16. I already have my class schedule and it doesn't look to difficult. I think they want me to speak English to the students basically. This will be no problem as my Chinese is rubbish.

They nice part about getting here and moving in is getting to know my fellow English teachers here. This weekend, I met John Pasden from Shanghai. He is the teacher who's position I am filling. Basically he hooked me up with the job. I am extremely grateful to him. On Sunday, I arrived in Hangzhou. I met Russell, Carl, John B. and Greg. I will be meeting Alf in a few days. Also another new teacher, Nate, will be arriving tomorrow. The dudes here are way cool. Even though none of them are women, I still think I will try to hang out with them and act like I'm interested in their lives (mostly because I think they know where the women are and which ones to stay away from). It seems like they are all pretty serious about learning Chinese. That's cool, it will inspire me to do a lot better.

I still don't have my own internet connection yet. Russell is nice enought to let me use his laptop tonight. At that moment when I do have my own connection I will post something...maybe a recount of my travels in middle China. But this posting is a continuation of the previous posting where I posted an apology for not posting anything and still managed to keep from posting anything. Sorry, but the Panthers lost the Superbowl (which I saw live on CCTV 5 early in the morning in my hotel in Nanjing) and I'm still depressed about it. I don't really want to talk about the Heels either. Also there will be pictures in the future--big shiny ones.

Jamison Guilt is meant to be a motivator. If you are feeling guilty for your extreme lack of communication, fix it. If it is a passing feeling, which I feel certain it is, then just keep us on on the edge of our seats. We'll be waiting when you're ready to speak.
