This is the official one-week anniversary of not being sick! For just over a month and a half I was not able to go a full week without coming down with something, but I have broken through!
Also the other day when I was in Kara, I saw on the news that the temperature was a cool 37¬º. I didn’t think too much of it at the time considering I had forgotten the conversion rate between Celsius and Fahrenheit. I actually caught myself thinking, “God I wish it was 37º (the F version)” Well, I found out that my phone has a nice little automated conversion dealio. I wish I had never found it. 37º C = 98.6º F. That is an average temperature for their “winter.” FML. In March, the temp is supposed to get upwards of 45ºC = a cool 113ºF. I can’t wait.
On that note, I am becoming very tan. And I have no doubt that after suffering through the Togolese winter and summer; I will be darn near black. That is especially so when compared to everyone back home who will be a nice pasty-white – reminiscent of PWG1 & PWG 2 after the coldstayinsidedontgetsunlight winter.
Oh yes, and since we are on the topic…add frog to the wonderful world of things that Greg has eaten. Apparently Togolese don’t have the same sentimental value for Kermit as anyone who grew up with the Muppets does.
