Tilipo....

The thing I hate about Lilongwe is that its ridiculously stressful to get here, and when I do arrive, I feel like all I do is run around getting even more stressed out and yet not actually getting anything done.  At all.  Arrived Wednesday night after getting a ridiculously wonderful hitch a little north of Blantyre.  I'm staying at Mufasa's and the last few days have been training for Volunteers Supporting Volunteers.  Its been pretty interesting for the most part and people in VSV have some cool ideas for things the group can do here to welcome new volunteers to their regions and stuff. I'm really excited anyways to be a part of the group.

Even more fun is I have a skin infection on my foot!  Its pretty awesome... And by that I mean gross...  :)  Apparently it was infected so now I'm on med hold until Monday in case it takes a turn for the worse!  Right now it seems to be getting less infected, but the rashy part seems to be spreading... And its ITCHY.  Ridiculously so.  And those of you who know me realize that itchy is a huge problem... Not scratching is a constant struggle.

Work is busy now.  I should be doing stuff for VSV, like edits for the volunteer directory thing, or getting stuff written up for the food security task force thingy I'm on (did actually do some of that), but the lure of free internet is so much easier to accept.  So instead, I've been spending my afternoon on facebook, looking up graduate programs (hey... only 14 months left), and random other things.  Oh well.. I'll be back to business soon enough.  Like tomorrow.
