Silence

It's 3:07. I've not slept yet. Am working on a paper that's due on Wednesday night. I'm ready to be done, but still have quite a ways to go: 7.5 book reports are written. 6.5 remain. Though I hate stopping in the middle of one, I can't think straight enough to make sense of what I'm writing. So I'm calling it the day. Or the night. I'm about halfway with my project paper.

Tomorrow, I am going to Rondo with a group of colleagues. They'll be relaxing. I'll be working on my paper. Someday, I'll be done with this and will be glad I did it. Actually, I'm already thankful I'm doing this. It's just a lot of work, which makes for a very interesting balancing act with my regular work which isn't exactly a 9-5 job. Far from it.

We'll be in Rondo till Tuesday. On Tuesday night, I fly to Nairobi. Will be running around the city for business on Wednesday, and board a plane very early in the morning on Thursday. I'll be unreachable for 2 weeks, after which I'll be back in the saddle, full-swing, full-speed, by September 1.

But so you know, there won't be posts to my blog for the next 3 weeks as I am doing some introspection and exercises in listening.

Can't wait to tell you all about it!

Till September. Lala salama.
