"Homework"

I've been recently informed that I need to report to the State Dept/German Embassy with an idea of what diplomacy means to me next Thursday. As far as I know, I'm not going to have to make some presentation or paper or thing, but I'm warning you that there may be long ramblings about foreign relations here for the next week while I try to sort my thoughts out and get some feedback ('cause I don't want to look dumb in front of an ambassador!).

I also have exciting plans for tonight's shindiggity, so expect entertaining (and probably mildly embarassing for those involved) stories and pictures later.
