I've almost finished one year of service. Whoa.

Thanksgiving was good. Went to an embassy family with a couple other PCVs. Thursday was the pitch-in dinner at the embassy compound. The highlight of the day came in the form of cold cans of beer which I enjoyed next to the pool. Then on Friday we had another turkey! I almost thought that I wasn't going to make it back in time from my doctor's appointment. The taxi driver took a detour so he'd miss the downtown traffic. What was supposed to be a 15-20 cab ride turned into about an hour of driving around and asking people for directions. Lame. At least he didn't charge me for all that extra mileage.

Saw a great t-shirt at the market today. It said, "Don't blame me. It smelled like this when I got here."
I really considered buying it, but it had a funky stain on it.

We closed school yesterday, which was a day sooner than originally planned. I think it's because there wasn't going to be enough food to feed all the kids one more day. So now I'm just hanging out and getting ready for my big trip to America.

Oh. Termites invaded my bafu so I poured DOOM powder on their little tunnels. Showed them.


I'm off to buy cheese.
