I'm trying, but it isn't working

I tried to do a minor revision on my blog yesterday . . and today . . but something is bad either on my server, or with Blogger, or with China (most likely) which keeps the changes from being published. One of these days, you should see a different layout, but who knows when.

I've been thinking about leaving China and have realized I will miss many things about China, Suzhou, and many friends I have here. On the other hand, if someone put everything on a plane for me today, I'd go right after lunch. Too many sacrifices to my lifestyle, my health, and my sanity. I'll be very glad to get back to whatever the West has for me and I'll be very, very happy to take a pretty, smart souvenir back with me :) (psst! that's *you*, GP)
