Almost Home
I can't wait to come home. This trip has been fantastic--but there are too many things that I miss. For example:
- A hairdryer.
- Knowing about my (potential) new job.
- Skype.
- Finally being finished with my thesis.
- An American keyboard (damn these extra letters--ğüşıöç--and WHERE is the comma?)
- A proper shower.
- My own computer.
- Downloading the photos from my camera.
- Toilet paper in the bathroom (rather than bringing my own).
- Regular access to the internet.
We're going to Istanbul tomorrow morning and from there I'll fly out on Monday. If all goes well (insert mysteriously missing comma) I'll be back in Maryland by midnight on Monday night. I'm counting the minutes.
Beginning on Tuesday morning (again with the comma) I'll do the following:
- Renew my driver's license (which expired last month)
- Call about my job application.
- Sort out my finances (or lack thereof).
- Get a pedicure.
- Go buy an iPod.
Life will be so good!
Comments
You already have an amazing number of gizoms... yet you are going to buy an ipod? That sounds strange to me coming from one who has just spent a year studying sustainability.
(we just got a list of edits to our thesis. "The man" didn't like the places where we implied that perhaps incorporating the TNS pinciples, as valid and great as I truely believe they are, into ones defenition of sustainabiliy is not REQUIRED in order to identify *more* actions. He suggests that we change "may not be required" to "may be required".
