Let me tell you about Egyptian bugs....yes, my life is so boring that I now have to blog about bugs. Joe and I keep getting bit by Egyptian mystery bugs. We never see these bugs. They operate in super-stealth mode. I have no idea what bites me, but all of a sudden there are these huge bug bites that itch like mad. Yesterday, I had a bug bite that was so swollen one of the teachers said my arm looked like I had a compound fracture. You don't even want to know what the bug bite on my leg looks like. I don't know what the deal is. Apparently, they are especially potent. Somehow, it reminds me that I'm in Africa.
The problem is that it has gotten hot at night, so we keep the windows and balcony doors open for the air, but then the bugs get in. So it's either sweat it out or get bit up. Joe has finally convinced me to turn on the air conditioner. We finally got a good night's sleep last night. Thank God.
Not much is going on really, as you can see:) As we get closer to visiting the States, we mention daily to each other what we miss - San Antonio tacos, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, real haircuts, good beer (it is a Muslim country after all), normal deoderant, driving a car for ourselves in sane traffic, trees and fresh air - the list goes on. We'll be there soon!
