Long Hiatus explained

Yeah I know its been a while...but I can explain...not excuse but explain...On...Friday was it...? I forgot to post. It was a freaking long ass day. We got home are 8ish. BLEEEEH!!! Then I didn't want to post on an off day. And then we went to Macky's on Saturday, and we ended up going to bed later than usual. And finally yesterday I spent too long on an excel spreadsheet. I wouldn't have been able to post today because there was no power, except it came back on. Woot!

So lets start the five day dissertation.

Friday was uneventful. To start with. We drove a long, long way to site ____. (Can't remember the name) And it was pretty boring for a while. Lots and Lots and LOTS of people, but pretty boring. Just the usual watching Gerald, but I stopped being super vigilant. I just watched for a couple things I thought he might mix up. But he did very good that day.

Until Leslie and a couple HSA's left on a huge defaulter run. Now they left around 4ish, which is the time we normally leave for home. While waiting I exhausted my conversation with the nurses who had been left behind with me. Listened to a bunch of music. Climbed a tree and tried to knock down all the dead branches. (Yeah I was THAT bored.)

Eventually I got so bored that I climbed the other tree I had been hesitant to climb before, the one that is ant infested. Granted I did check that they weren't fire ants, but still. I then listened to music for half an hour. Then a bunch of kids who had been staring at me all crowded around the base of the tree. I said hi and gave the biggest kid a handshake. And he proceeded to try to frag me out of the tree. Or so I initially thought. Actually he was just using me to get a boost into the tree. In less that 15 seconds in fact, all eight of the kids had clambered up into the tree and were all nicely situated. It was freaking crazy. So I amused myself by talking to them for half an hour, even though only one could speak English. Facts about them. There was one 17 year old, and the rest were 10-12. One of the twelve years was Majjed, (not sure how to spell) one other 10-12 was Akhmed, a really shy one I had to ask 4 times was named Rajjed (again, not sure) and the 17 year's name started with a "E." So yeah, eventually Leslie got back and we left for home at 6. Got back at 8. That, for your information, is a 15 hour day. LONG. ASS. DAY. As stated earlier. And I collapsed when I got home.

So then the next day. Saturday follows friday right? Weeeeeell. I forget. I know at some point we watched Palin's debate. (M! C! C! A! I! N! GOOOOOO MCCAIN! is my impression of her. Oh, and she talks down to americans too obviously, so we KNOW she's bsing us, wheras Biden was only obvious once. And she needs to learn to answer questions.) Aaaaand we went to Macky's. And I wrote a biggie excel file. Or most of it. N stuff. Its all very vague.

On sunday we picked up an old volunteer here name I forget every time...Katie for something (this time I really cant remember) and we said hi n stuff. We might have done somethign else. But I cant remember. We went to Macky's again though. And I got back late. Hence no post.

Monday was another normal day, except this time I was with stool study. Meaning we sat around for a while waiting for some babys to poop. I can't really say I do much though, since Victor and whatever I named the nurse which I am too lazy to look up now always do everything. I'm running around trying to find something to do! (And for your info, that one time I slept for two hours NOONE was working. We were all waiting for one...last...pooper...to go...) So we were waiting for 3 more poopers that day when Victor goaded me into climbing yet another tree. When I got up there, I wasnt exactly sure how I was gonna get down, so to stall for time, I asked for a stick and started knocking mangoes down. (I was told later "Bad Billy! Not our mangoes!) After I got down Victor went up and knocked some more down. We both were bad =P

And we went home, ate, and I spent to rest of the day finishing the spreadsheet so we could sent it to Dr Manary (its a "beta" sheet) and it was too late. Seriously, between sleep and a post there is no hard choice.

So. Today. Woke up early. Went to site. No defautlers to find. Lots of cute babiez, got some pics actually, hehe they so adorable.

We got home very early, and Leslie and I went to run some errands. And I really have no idea what Dr Manary thought of the spreadsheet. He responded in what Leslie called "word salad" and it took us a couple minutes to make head or tail of it. I think he means that the new person coming is gonna tell us. Whaaaaateveeeer! Just let me know what needs to go! (I did the shotgun method, putting everything I thought he could possibly want, so all he can tell me is to get rid of stuff.)

Oh and the power was out for most of today, so we had no food made for us. *boo hoo* I went for pizza with joy. (male) And here I am frantically trying to to to bed.
