It's Been a While

So I finally beat technology and am able to log into my account.t New problem...my battery is dying so this will probably be short as per usual.
I'm getting ready to give my students there annual exam and then I'm on break because A-level is odd like that, but I don't really care. I finally got mail and now I have more than 2 t-shirts...so stoked, but I cannot wear them this week because of the enormous blisters on my back that I got from sitting outside for three hours when the mkuu called an all school meeting on Monday. (These meetings are all in Kiswahili. One of the teachers wants to do teacher meetings in english only...I said if he did that they wouldn't last 3 hrs long)

What else have I been up to...hmmm...cooking at night takes a while and well I'm having food craving for things I can't have here because they aren't available so I take what I can get. I slayed some bees a few weeks ago and thought I might have to slay a snake. My neighbor got stung by a scorpion the other day. I have identified goat meat and prefer not to buy it with the head staring at me. Things are becoming slightly normal here and I know it will be weird to go back to the states. Really missing dairy and cold weather though.

Yeah, not much new other than teaching and going to town. I'm working on posting pictures on fb so check there for updates. Hopefully I'll have more interesting things to say later.
