I made it here safely, and while the housemates are quite the characters they don't seem to be harmful in any way.

Lesson of the weekend: Don't be so proud as to not ask someone to help you put sunscreen on your back before going to the beach. If you are, the result is a large, odd-shaped sunburn on your back (that corresponds with the area you can't reach yourself). Hopefully it won't peel and become a permanent reminder of this little folly.

First day of Spacex commences in less than an hour, so I better get going.
