moving

As i believe I stated in the moving video, His landlord is simply ceasing the lease with his job. So for lack of a better term he has been evicted through no fault of his own. See the way it works with his job is a little different than they way it works with mine. They provide him an apartment and say "Here you can live here with another person until your done with your contract." or they can give you a very small housing allowance and just have you fend for yourself on the apartment, that is what tom is doing now. My job gives me a resonable allowance and lets me fend for myself. As far as peoples plans go patrick I can;t really tell you about Tom, I doubt Tom knows himself and anyone that knows him would know why I say that. As for me I don't see myself living in the US again full time for many many years. I will be back for a visit every year if I have my way, but that's about it. Tom and I were expecting to see you and Dad already, at least we thought you two were going to be coming this year. It's unlikely that I will have money to do any traveling before december or january. Janice and I plan to take a small trip during spring festival. Honestly I was a little dissapointed when you planned another trip this year as your very sincere letter at the airport said "Soon" that has been 1 year and one month ago, not that soon eh? Although I suppose it's better now as I have a girlfriend that speaks chinese and may be interested in traveling with us. not to mention other friends whose chinese is good. Just because I can speak some chinese here doesn't mean they will understand me in other provinces. So plans ... tell me what you want to do and I'll make some
