(no subject)
a little past noon. sitting in front of the computer, hair wet from the shower (i just conditioned it)...call to prayer just ended and i'm using a dainty tea saucer as an ash tray. sand storm season...the wind was whirling everything about yesterday, gray brown sky and off and on rain. i was so enchanted by it that left my windows wide open while reading on my bed. mistake...now there's a layer of dust/sand coating my posessions. shutters are closed and windows are open, good comprimise, i think. my room mate just walked from his room to the shower...saluted me with a "buenos dias". (...) he wears sandals in the shower...and leaves the wet marks in a trail to his bedroom. i declined an invitation to eat pancakes at the ex-pat community center because i was supposed to watch a play...but i missed the play and now am craving pancakes. in three months i will be in california preparing to go to brazil. oh, the life...
