Feeling Normal

The other night Ike and I watched Empire of the Sun, we are watching movies of
things that happened in SE Asia, we've also seen 7 Years in Tibet because Ike
is going on a school trip to Tibetan India.

I get so engrossed in the movie that I forget where I am and then, when it is over,
I go out to the back porch to bring in the laundry and I see the palm trees and feel the humidity and suddenly I realize, "Oh! I live in Singapore!"

Sometimes I wake up thinking I am in Colorado. Once, before I was fully awake, when the air conditioner was set too low and it was raining hard, I thought the rain drops hitting the window might be snow and wondered if we would get a snow day!

What can I blame this on? Jet lag? Its been 3 months!

Besides that, it is starting to feel a bit normal to live here.
