Rad. Let me know if you need a ride to the airport :)

Uzbekistan ... gods, how cool is that?

Actually it's hot - 120 degree hot.

Why did I end up doing research in the northern hemisphere desert? My colleagues doing research in Argentina and even Fiji have it made. This is especially true since the only free time I have to do research is during the "chille," a 40-day period of intense heat.

But I digress. I think I'll have the ride to the airport all covered, but I'd appreciate if I can hold your offer as a back up plan.

Another reason why I'm so glad my research can be done from the comfort of my living room in my jammies. Phew! But it's kinda boring when you say you're doing fieldwork, you're asked where, and you say "uh, my couch." No one wants postcards.

Congrats on the visa and have an awesome trip!!!

Could I get you to deliver a steamer trunk?

Ignore the airholes...

lol - not with the extra charges for baggage these days!

But you're more than welcome to trek up to SC after I'm back and sip tea, play music, and chat with me.
