Phew.

I'm all meeting-ed out, man. Three solid days of meetings just takes it out of me. But I think they were relatively good meetings. It's always good to "network" and hear about what other people are doing. And to tell them what we're doing. So we can all work together. But man, it makes me tired!

Yesterday I just found out that I've been nominated to go to a different town to go to three MORE days of meetings next week! But I've been to that town before, and it's a very nice place, so it will be nice to be there again, and to see some friends there. AND, this is the best part, I get to fly on a charter plane :) The roads are just too terrible, and I might not even make it there by bus, so one of the mission organization has chartered a little plane to go there! That means I get to fly (for cheap!) on a little plane. I'm sure it will be good fun, and hopefully I'll get a window seat so I can take some pictures from the air. So since I'm tired of meetings tonight, I'm thinking about the fun that it's going to be on Tuesday morning going to the next round of meetings. Oh yeah, did I mention that I have a full morning of meetings on Monday, as well?!

I've seen a book called, "Death by Meeting". If you don't hear from me next week... you can assume that's what's happened.

On the funny side of life, when I came back today from the meetings at about 6:30pm, one of the girls who works in the guesthouse was on her way home. She was sporting a serious Afro hair-do. I've never seen such big hair worn so proudly. She's never done anything like that before, and it was, well, quite the sight! I'm not sure if it's the influence of our Ugandan cook on her or what...
