Eh, we had fun and learned a lot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contract is ending, sooner than expected!  No way&amp;#8230; Never mind the lease, the bills, the money we *might* owe the UK gov&amp;#8217;t (still no idea). Just get the hell out of town and don&amp;#8217;t look back.  I have to say it took way longer in preparation to get over here than we actually stayed.  We are graciouslly lucky to have had this experience!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are EXCited to come home, snuggle with our loved ones, and dream of our UK bank accounts that we can&amp;#8217;t transfer to US dollars yet because the Exchange rate Sucks Ass right now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We will continue to work internationally (hopefully) and look forward to visiting a proper american dentist.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers.&lt;/p&gt;

Aparently to keep our house from flooding we have to take the sledge out of the drain every week. hummmm. did NOT know that.  Miraclously the flood waters inched around all of our equipment without harm, taking only a pile of clothing and the laundry detergent hostage.  wow.  we were spared of using our home insurance this time.  And, the bathroom that the mushrooms and slugs love had water in it, and now it is really musty.  THat bathroom is so strange.  The main toilet pipe goes out of the toilet and under the shower and out of the house, leaving this huge gap under the shower that leads the outside world (mainly slugs and spores) into our strange bathroom.  I guess that is what happens when a house is built in the 1700&amp;#8217;s, and then converted into modern rooms.  everything is a little strange about this house, but we like it.  I thought it might be haunted for a while, with a ghost that pees in the bathroom upstairs because it smelled awful like 100 year old piss, but some bleach took care of that so there was no ghost.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://joshandval.tumblr.com/post/48846224</link><guid>http://joshandval.tumblr.com/post/48846224</guid><pubDate>Fri, 05 Sep 2008 10:29:00 +0100</pubDate><category>more</category></item><item><title>ahem, at a job last week, a guy actually asked me if I had lost...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/c7ieHpugmd4caog3qbMxPkWr_500.gif"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;ahem, at a job last week, a guy actually asked me if I had lost my fake ‘nail art’ in his keyboard.
