Hey how's it going Diary Reading fans. We had a busy day today. Church was from 8:30am to 2:10pm. Well that's how long we were out of the house. After church we ate and I took a nap. I had a killer headache and I was just plain tired. That was an hour and a half.
Then we went to a беседа [besyeda - discussion] with this cool inactive family. The father Юри [Yuri], was really friendly. The wife - Таля [Talya] was pretty pessimistic about things. It sounded like she was mad at Брат Woolsey [one of my MTC teachers] for taking away Катя [Katya - Брат Woolsey's now wife] or just the fact that some of the females go to church to meet men from America. Right now it's time to go to bed & I'm listening to the "Humpty Dance" really loud. bye

March 4, 1997 - Tuesday
It's actually 1:10am on the 5th, but it's still Tuesday night. Today was Ст. Paige's last full day in the country. He leaves tomorrow - the big freak. What a lucky punk. I hurt my leg again today. I jumped an ice patch and went down. I laid there for a while, but had to leave because of everyone else kept walking.
I nabbed a lot of tapes and a CD from Ст. Paige. Also today in the Announcements was the President [Jarvis] saying that we shouldn't listen to screw music. And also if we bought any CDs at about $3 - $4, then it is probably pirated and we shouldn't get it. I haven't decided what to do yet. He didn't say not to buy any etc. but he encouraged us not to.
[Mid Post Chat- Can you believe the rationalizing going on here?? You can definitely tell that I'm in with a pretty trunky crowd still.]
I got a letter from Ст. Kindred in Rostov and he said that he was very busy and had a huge area. I also received my deodorant and a letter & pen from Gib. It's a pretty cool pen - it says "Elder Walter Dale Herrick Russia Moscow Mission" engraved on it. I also received another letter from Gib and he told me he was beat up about 2 weeks ago. Then just recently sprained his ankle and had to say in bed for 2 days. He seems pretty fired up about everything and thinks he will be a senior [companion] pretty soon. He has the language down and everything. He asked me if I was fluent yet. Hah!!
Then I got a letter from mom that says everything I heard in a fax I got two weeks ago. Kind of silly. I also got my deodorant though. I bought some here but it is only deodorant and it wears off pretty fast. She sent me some deodorant/anti-perspirant - musk scented.
Well I have three more lines to go until I can sleep [until the end of the page in my journal], and I am going to write a run-on sentence, until I end, bye.
