June!
Last part of May
So, the last part of May I got to travel to UB on Peace Corps' dime for my medical check-up. Woot! I'm still healthy! Went to Darkhan to see friends, then came back to UB to see the new volunteers arrive! It was nice not to have so many things to do and people to see. The best things I did in UB were 1) Buying a pint of pistachio ice cream and watching a random traveler's favorite movie. 2) Sitting on the balcony of the guesthouse and people watching. 3) Getting my wallet stolen. There's nothing like a minor tragedy to humble you and keep your life in perspective. :)
June!
The new volunteers came! Went back to site. I found out my cat is pregnant! Then like a week later....she had five kittens! Went to the aimag center to hang with my boys...I'm really going to miss Matt..... hardcore.... Craig's staying in Mongolia, so I'll still get to see him! I rode a camel and another horse! It's so weird. I rode more horses in the states than I have in Mongolia....go figure.... My parents are coming! Woot! They're here for a week!
Random things totally unrelated to Peace Corps....
I have recently discovered that Amanda Palmer.... lead singer of the Dresden Dolls... is currently working on a solo album with Ben Folds.... When I found this out....I literally freaked out and started dancing around the Peace Corps office....This is going to be an awesome record.... (Amanda Palmer and Ben Folds are my musical soulmates...that's why I'm really excited)
Also! The Dresden Dolls are finally putting out another DVD! It comes out July 10 and if anyone sends me it....I will marry them....I mean....if you're a dude....if you're a girl....I will be your hetero-life mate.....like Jay and Silent Bob....except...we'd be chicks....
There's so much more I want to say and write about....but I gotta go!

Kim! We haven't talked in oh so long. It sounds like you're continually having a blast, which is excellent. Everything is good over here. I just went to New York for the first time! Alone! Let's talk soon!
Lots of exclamation points.

I want to be your hetero-life mate - wait, is that even possible since were already related? Sounds kinda dirty...
