Brazilian Procurement Building - Where I'm going to eat lunch today.
Dang it! I don't have time to write! I had a dream last night that I kept stripping down to my undies during meetings at the embassy. I would get too hot and I'd just strip down; nobody would say anything about it, but I'd be really embarassed. Man! I think it stemmed from some stress at a nice dinner I went to on Tuesday night. I dressed nicely enough, but I wore flip flops and I felt pretty stupid because of it.
I'm prepping my application for a Fulbright research grant. Work is essentially over for me. In fact, the political section took me out to a churrascaria yesterday for my farewell lunch. Mmm! Livin' large. Anyway, I hope today's cool picture makes up for these lame words.
