The mosquitos like me here.

Now, I just need to work on evening out the days. Less sucky ones, more generally okay ones. The past couple have been amazing/generally okay.

I made it out to Mass last night, with a German guy. The priest is Indian, and I think by the time I leave we will have had some very interesting conversations. The nuns were there and they are like "come over any time except between 12-3, we don't receive visitors then", so on Wednesday (insha'allah) I will go after class and find out what all is up with that. I'm very excited.

Today I headed over to the US Embassy to get a letter of no objection to stay in Yemen. The cab driver on the way over ripped me off, and I walked home, which I was intending to do anyway, but it took about an hour. Then to the supermarket (which is quite another walk) with Jennifer, my flatmate. I'm pretty sure I have a sunburn now. I'm so totally not diligent in sunblock application (or vocabulary memorization, or food consumption).

I'm exhausted now, so I should probably go.
