It's a quiet Saturday morning. Sasha just left for her French lessons; she has conversation classes on Tuesday and regular classes on Saturdays. My Spanish is only once a week, but in March there will be a conversational course on Saturday's also; something I will definitely sign up for.

At work everything's well. Next I'll go to Puero Rico, so we spent a lot of time preparing presentations and materials for there. Some of the presentations we needed color printed -- this is remarkably easy with Kinko's "remote printing".

I finished reading "A People's History of the United States", a book that -as I started realizing while reading the book- was written from an American socialist point of view. Now I'm half-way a great new book by Davic McCullough, 1776 -- an account of the military campaign of Washington against the British. I just read about the Battle on Dorchester Heights in Boston. This was an early victory of the Colonial Army, when they occupied this strategic point overlooking the harbor in one single night, forcing the British to leave the city.
