So I will, after all, have classes tomorrow. Planned out ones with notes and activities and such. Way to go, Miss Responsibility.
As it turns out, it makes more sense to go do Ouaga errands on Thursday rather than tomorrow. My travel partner will have just returned from an 80k round trip bike ride and might like a day to relax...and if I CAN teach my classes, I should.
Soo...I will.
These next few days are weirdly packed...PCV visits, shopping and Christmas prep, classes, Christmas cooking, Ouaga money retrieval, Christmas...making sure I don't miss any of the holiday throwdown that'll be going on.
Now I must go to the post and then brace myself for the walk home, whereupon I will have to get gallons and gallons of water because I am out.
...& then I will sleep like a baby with my new soft warm blanket. Mmm winter.

Tips for sending mail my way:
- write "Air Mail/Par Avion" on things you send
- use red ink someplace on the envelopes
- draw religious symbols somewhere on the envelope (silly)
- stick postcards in envelopes or they'll probably end up on the post office wall!
- be as vague as possible on customs forms...pretty much anything can be considered "educational materials," right?
- keep in mind that mail typically takes 3-4 weeks to get from the States to BF!
...orrrr EMAIL ME! Do it! If you don't have my email address, I am sure there's a quick way to find it out!
...orrrr CALL ME! Really, it's possible. :)

Merry Christmas from NYC! I hope you have a great time with friends. Enjoy the "cooler" temps and definitely go dancing on New Years Eve. Burkinabe get really into it and it's a great thing to witness.
From your lively descriptions I am better able to envisage the place where my daughter Yuki, whom you befriended, works. Thank you
