Hey dudes, gals, and family,
I'm back in the BOMA. We have to see immgration in the provincial capital tomorrow, so I get some time away from the village. Nothing much has changed though. I now have furniture (a bed, coffee table, couple of chairs) which is nice, but the best thing I have right now is my little ipod speakers (THANKS MOM!). The village must hate me, cause I am constantly playing music - morning to evening. But honestly, if they hate my music, so be it- it really really brightens up my day. A few things have been working like that.
Cooking. For sure cooking. Cause I have so much time on my hands breakfast and dinners are huge affairs. Just the other day I made bqq baked beans - it took 6-7 hours to make, but damn if they weren't good beans. I'm also using soya pieces - they're essentially strips of chicken-esque strips made from soy. They work like sponges soaking up what ever spice/sauce/etc I throw in.
On top of cooking and music, I've been running - a lot. I guess the massive amount of carbohydrates has something to do with, but either way I'm addicted again. Then there's the mountain biking. Its not that great, but there are some nice hills to barrel down and every once in a while I can find some entertaining single track.
Oh, then there's Tig. He's doing well, but a puppy just about to hit puberty (despite what the seller told me - he, in fact, is not fixed). I've got a pretty bad mouse problem, the villagers tell me the only solution is a cat. So I'm gonna try to pick one up either today or tomorrow.
So, I'm gonna go find a cat now. Keep the comments coming - its good to hear from y'all. Oh yeah! I got my US phone unlocked so in a matter of days I'll have the internet on my phone! I'll write somethin later.
Loves,
Ryan
