by the way

the time here is 12 1/2 hours later here than it is in chicago.

today was sort of an observational, introduction kind of day. rachel, phil, and i are working together at one of the Mobile Creches, which are temporary (and ocassionally permanent) day care centers set up for the children of migrant construction site workers all around india. one of the ccs staff members came with us today to introduce us there and to help the teachers explain to us what sort of help they're expecting from us.

there's a line behind me for this computer (a communal ccs house computer hooked up to the currently-working internet) so i'll write later :)
