Will McD's be my hero?

I'm at the McCafe this time. I ordered a latte machiato which is a glorified cappuccino with more milk topped with more frothy milk in a tall glass. Fun. Thanks to Tammy Hernke I've gotten the secret codes I need to try to fix my MS word so I'm sitting here waiting while it loads...58%...

I got to skype video chat with my family just a minute ago. Weird for several reasons. 1) the Maltese ppl sitting around me didn't seem plussed that some geek w/a headset was talking on a video to her family. 2) the loud background noise was a plus and a minus - plus that no one else could really hear my conversation. Minus that my family probably had a hard time with it too. 3) I felt antsy, like someone was going to bust me at any minute for doing something I wasn't supposed to. I'm clinging to my empty glass for ownership over my space here as every moment passes. 62%...

So I still have a blog I want to post that's stuck, for the moment, in Works. It actually has nothing to do with my day to day activity though so I guess it can get posted whenever and not throw anything off chronologically. I spent yesterday in what I will hope will become my routine. After my special time with the Golden Girls, I read some articles and then transcribed my interviews with George and Kilena. Then I hit the road for another interview with Kilena. She's been very helpful, and I'm only about 2/3 through my interview questions with her. I'm not sure if that means I need to revise my questions or what...as I'm not sure every participant I get will want to have three meetings with me. 66%...

Today they are setting up in St. George's Square for something. Looks like it's being operated by the staff at Grapes Wine Bar just below me so I wonder if it's another wedding reception. If it is, this one looks like it'll be big time - they even dropped off two port-o-johns and have set up something that I assume will be some sort of "dance floor" or stage space. I'm curious to see what is going on. Then again, it could be something different altogether as Monday is Malta's Independence Day and I've been told (by Kilena) that the celebrations usually happen the weekend prior. 69%....

Two more days until I head to Valletta to meet up with Wim. I'm beyond excited! Ahhh yeah that's about all I got I guess. Riveting, I'm sure. I can't wait to get this word problem fixed. 73% there....

Later.
