Ow! My back! Photo shoot, class, and others.
I’ve suddenly developed a nasty backache, and I’d like to go to the nearest masseuse.¬† I was glad to find out I liked her so much, because I’ve had a hard time finding one I really liked.¬† I did have a regular guy, but he moved away.¬† The problem is, though, that I noticed she has a couple of warts on her hand!¬† Warts spread, and I don’t want them!¬† I may be desperate enough to go, after changing into long clothes so she won’t make any physical contact.¬†
The guy from China Business News wanted to come and take some photos in my class tomorrow.¬† I found out at the last minute that it’s not allowed without prior permission from the university.¬† So it may not come off, or the photo-taking might be delayed.¬†
In other news, I finally started taking the Miao embroidery class that I’ve been thinking of enrolling in for like a year.¬† It was VERY hard.¬† There was a lot to remember, and the teacher didn’t speak English at all.¬† I have some homework to do.¬† We’ll see if I can get it done in time — I may have to spend a lot of time on it over the weekend.
Lastly, I was surprised to find out I have about 2,000 fewer RMB than I thought in my bank account.¬† I’m pretty astonished by that, and will have to go to the bank tomorrow to see what’s up.¬† >:(

Sorry to hear about your back and I hope you feel better soon, but really I’m just leaving this comment to see if it’s working correctly, with the new spam filter and all.

Are your comments working? I was wondering if the people are larger in Yanghzou (sp?) where the food is served in larger portions and the rice is oily. (My comment on that post didn’t show up).

Well, now they are working! I had this problem with getting thousands of spams, and your comment was probably in amongst them. I couldn’t log on to Wordpress.com to get the key I needed to stop it. Bart saved me by doing it himself and installing it. Thanks Bart!
I started wondering about the same thing when I was in Yangzhou. I didn’t think the people are particularly larger there, but they are by a little. They do have a little layer of fat that people don’t have in places like Guangdong. (Although most everyone in there would have been slim by American standards!)

Interesting.
Glad you’ve got the spam filter now. That makes things better. Mine has “caught” nearly 800 spams since I got in installed a couple of months back, with Editor B’s guidance. I don’t know what Akismet means, but I like what it does.
