The internet is up in the small apartment and it is pretty quick so perhaps I will get around to posting more pictures. Here is one I took way back when I was getting super ashy and dirty at the beginning of the season. It doesn’t really capture how dirty I was, as much as it captures how dirty the bathroom mirror is. My hair has a nice sandy highlight to it though.
My hair is actually beginning to take on a dreadlock like form since I only wash it about twice a week…when I take the braids out the hair just kind of stays in sections. Oh well. I’ll come home looking like I was in Jamaica and not Egypt
Today I had to start going back to some of the squares that I completed before. After more cleaning was done to the, there turned out to be more things for me to draw. There is this really long extending mudbrick wall which actually connect through the two squares I have been sketching. This is a pretty neat wall, but it requires close attention because in some areas its really difficult to determine the placement, orientation, and bonding of the bricks. The later it gets in the day, the harder it is too see as well because of the lighting. I was pretty determind to get a lot of it down though.
I’m also going to argue that databasing is a waste of time right now. I noticed today that people are altering the feature logs (the hard copy ones, not the internet ones). This is bad, because I already entered the data, and if I don’t know that changes are made, it wont get entered into the computer. When I work on site, I only work in one of 4 or 5 different areas all working from their own logs and registers…so of course I know when things change in my area, but I have no idea what happens elsewhere. It seems more logical to just enter it all at the end. I understand that its nice to have the information in a database in case anything happens to the paperwork, but we can just make copies and keep them in the folder, replacing sheets in the very end, and then entering it all. I also think this is the best idea because this way, I do not have to work on the computer when I could be working on the site. I get so bummed when I have to stay in. So that’s that.
Tomorrow is Thursday and a half day. Joy. I want to get down to the bookstore and pick up something new, but I do not know if I will or not.
Eh, that’s about it for now.

I hope you are feeling better Kelly! I am glad to hear that food time peps you up...maybe you should ask for an extra lunch break, ha ha! You still look adorable to me, even with all of the dust and grime. It reminds me of when you kids were little...into the tub with you is what I would say...Thank you for your very entertaining email! I laughed and enjoyed it probably way too much. I just adore you, my little Kelly!
No, Kelly, we arn't for sure getting another dog. We are fostering A dog. Retired racing greyhounds to be exact. They spend most of their racing lives in cages, the people said they have to go through fostering to get the experience of the simpilist things like hardwood floors, sliding glass doors, stairs, car rides. It's crazy. And I'm sure you know fostering means taking care of it untill another family adopts it. Mom said we're gunna try it out in the summer once we are all around all the time instead of leaving it home by itself all day. We're just trying it, remember. If we don't like it, we can just stop fostering simple as *snaps fingers* that. So don't freak out already.
