Ok So here is the background. The Peace Corps has a super extensive backround, medical, dental, vision and financial check. The process feels like that they can ween them out in the beginning that we will be all the better. I happen to agree with them, even though I think that they are hilarious in some of their rationale (according to my BMI, I am obese, but then so is Arnold Swazenegger). Anyway, back to the real point. I need some help. I have to choose a second pair of glasses so if I lose, break or destroy my first pair I have a back up. Now I would like to save my nice pair as the back up and have the Peace Corps issue pair be my primary. That is where you the reader come in. I need you to help me pick a pair. So in the comment field, leave which number and color you think I should choose. The pair with the most ammount of votes will be the pair that I choose* (*All descions are subject to final approval of my superior, my wife).
Happy Voting!

For those who don't know what the life of a Peace Corps Nominee is like, this is for you. For those lucky few who have gone through the seemingly enless questions of "So when are leaving?" and "Have you signed up for Timbuctoo yet?", you will understand fully what it is that I am talking about. I have been inspired by the wonderful writings of past volunteers, hearing stories of their harrowing and sometimes, bone-chiling stories, to begin to document my own story. While my story right now might not be bone-chiling or harrowing, it might serve as an outlet for something productive to do other than buying useless, but awesome, stuff on the internet or watching the idiot box. This will be a platform for me to complain, inspire, digress and hopefully decompress all the thoughts that I am having about our adventure.
While I know that I am prone to wander and possibly bore all those who read this (mom and maybe wife?), It is a place that is more about me than the reader. It is my thoughts on life, the things I find myself wondering and questioning. It is a place for dreamers and mostly a place to think. To stop and ask the questions that I am not going to be affraid of asking. And that is as they say is that. First blog down, hopefully, many more to follow...
Did I mention that I often get bored with things and lose interest?
