I just finished moving into the apartments and all i can say is, what an upgrade. My room even has its own air conditioner and balcony. I feel extremely spoiled. The bed is HUGE and comfy, and I am a very happy Kelly, although it does take a bit away from the whole gritty archaeologist lifestyle. There's still plenty of dirt for me to deal with on site though, it's nice to be able to retreat to comfort, especially because the heat has been so bad. I will post pictures later on this evening.
In not so happy news, my cough is back and worse than before. If I were to really consider any reasons why I would choose to not come back here or continue work in Egypt it would be because of how it feels for me to breathe...and that's saying a lot. Few archaeologists would turn down work at Giza, but if I knew I had to feel like this for more than a few weeks, it would definitely be a factor in my decision. I find myself even less able to understand smokers if their lungs feel, in any way, the way mine do now....yuck.
Well i'm going to load up on benadryl and take a nap. Then it's shower time and out to dinner. It is the weekend here in egypt..a glorious 36 hours off. There will be no exciting trips tomorrow though. My professor decided that in the interest of my health, that I should stay in and take it easy...it is also for his health too, whatever is in the air gave him an allergy attack as well. So far it seems to only be him and I with all the problems so maybe it's an animal bone thing!
I will post more later, probably bye for now
