Well, the past week has been pretty fun, and I'm still ever so grateful that I survived 2 months in Africa and made it back here.  Go me!  Anyhow, I have now seen all the movies I missed in Uganda: Pirates of the Caribbean 2, The Devil Wears Prada, and Superman Returns.  I was very impressed with The Devil Wears Prada--they did a nice job of making ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm FINALLY back in the States after a full day 2 days of airports and planes and bad food and no sleep.  I'm ridiculously tired and groggy and I can't even remember my own name, but I don't care because I'm home!!!  I met our new kitty--he's a Maine Coone kitten named Hobbes--and he's the most adorable thing ever.  I'm totally going to ( Read more... )

We got to crawl into creepy-looking holes in the ( Read more... )

I'm staying in a guest house here in Kasese, and it is SWEET. I have my own room, a private bathroom (complete with--wait for it--HOT WATER!), laundry service, and a chef who ( Read more... )

1. Saw X-Men 3. Was actually the tiniest bit disappointed, although it definitely had its moments. Don't really have time to elaborate ( Read more... )

I'm aliiiiiive! So far. I've been here for 4 days, I think. Just...60 more to go? Or something? Hahaha. I can't even begin to describe Uganda in the 18 minutes that I have left before my Internet time runs out, so I'm not sure I'm even going to try. Suffice it to say that it is more different than you could possibly imagine, and believe me ( Read more... )

Oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God. You guys, the impossible just happened ( Read more... )
