My house is glorious. I renovated against all better judgment. The money I saved for travel is virtually diminished now; however, I am content in my home in times of rain, sunshine, and boredom. I hope to take some video (maybe for the next post) of the large amount of work presently completed so that you all can see that, while in the bush, certain characteristics still shine through my rugged exterior. A nice visitor tried to force his way into my home to appreciate my newfound stylish interior. It was a bit scary, especially because there was no cell service. My only course of action was to buckle down the fort and fight back. With my slasher, I started screaming obscenities mixed with Ateso phrases about “scummy thieves.” To supplement my crazy vocal outburst, I started hitting the door from the inside. Whether because the thieves thought I was some crazy man or for another reason, they fled. Just another day in the life of a villager. School term ends at the end of the week, giving way to a full month of holiday. What is a man to do? I have in-service training for a week, and then I will take to the garden to continue farming. Now in my seventh month, I’m starting to forget what life was like pre-PC. What is a sink? Toilet? Light bulbs? Dating? A supermarket? Movies? Wireless Internet? So many things that seemed so easy prior now exist only in my dreams. As always, I love and miss you all. No matter how long or far away I am, I could never forget the people who made my existence pre-PC. Stay well and in touch.
Love,
Adamg.
