I'm in Basse, but I only came for the day, thinking I could quickly get some banking and shopping and typing done and then return to site. I need to only stay for the day, because tomorrow is Monday.
I forgot banks are closed on Sundays.
And I've already spent a lot of time on the computer and the power went out (I'm on a laptop), and the power just went back on so maybe I will have time to write out some blog posts for future posting after all. I have a little less than one hour before I'm going for a chicken sandwich lunch and heading home. Let's see how fast I can type.
It's been about a month since I returned from site from Banjul but thankfully some muffins arrived for me in the mail, so the transition back wasn't too rough. Before I left for Banjul I was convinced my host family's dog was pregnant and that I'd soon have my pick from a litter of adorable puppies, but I returned and she's no fatter (if anything, she's a little skinnier). However, having already made up my mind that a puppy is exactly what I want, I now need to go searching around the village for one.
Oh! And today I saw pigs for the first time! A bunch of them were running down a side road in Basse. They really have the cutest snouts.
The cold season is drawing to a close and I've been informed multiple times that I'll need to buy a small bed for sleeping outside and not to worry because the mosquito net will catch any falling mangoes.
And that's all I have for random thoughts of the moment. Now I'll write up some more stories and click "Post Options" and click "Scheduled at" and type in some dates in the future.
