November 25 Happy Thanksgiving. Right now it is about 7 p.m. at home. Mom probably has the turkey going. Our cooks at the training center made us turkey and dressing with gravy, veggies, mashed potatoes and apple pie. I really missed sweet potatoes with marshmallows, though.
Life is good.
Only a week of training left. The excitement, anticipation, nervousness are building up. We trainees have started calling things that go wrong part of Afrikosis, a.k.a. the simple fact that things just work differently, more slowly in Africa. For instance, say that you want ice cream, which costs 135f. That's Afrikosis for you.
