Quick Update (Sept 26/02)

Hi all! Just wanted to say hiya before the weekend - I have not had a
chance to be online this week - very crazy at work (here's me, the
newbie W2K sysadmin rebuilding registries!! :) and no time at home to
write copious amounts of email!

I'm still having a grand time and *may* be going to Mount Kenya this
weekend.. either that or skydiving & motocross!!

A couple of thoughts...
- I don't even know how much a drink costs here because the men are
obliged to pay for women at all times... (i.e. sometimes I think I could
like chauvanism!)
- a superb haircut costs C$14 and includes shoulder and scalp massage
(btw, my bleach is almost gone, thank god - just have tips now)
- "How You Remind Me" by Nickelback is the most popular song at the
clubs... yes, even in Nairobi!! (so it's overplayed everywhere
apparently)
- I started going to the gym again but nearly passed out due to altitude
- 6000 feet or so is a big change when you've been living at sea level
all your life!
- I'm now reading the Qur'an (koran) just to see what this Muslim
stuff's all about - hopefully won't be converted but I may fast during
Ramadan simply due to peer pressure (starting Nov 6 for a month)

Anyway, I have a work party tonight (hmm, they just passed around some
Belgian chocolate) and we're then off to the clubs.. have a good one
everyone!

miss you all,
johanna
