Early November Ten

This week I've been thankful for

1. a new iPod to replace my very old and failing one
2. Henan teddy grahams
3. the Ricochet podcast which I just discovered
4. a mirror in my apartment (I'd gone two months without one)
5. great students to get to know
6. great hospitality
7. The Village coffee shop in Xi'an
8. the Xi'an Metro which is so much cheaper than taking a cab
9. a great 5k around the Xi'an Wall with my fiance (I got to run even though my registration had fallen through)
10. two good months of life here in China
