ARGH!!! my washing machine broke this evening!! it flooded my floor and leaked into my neighbours apartment!! to my disappointment my landlord's crazy mother won't replace it but will just remove it. i'm sooooo disappointed, as much as i love the maxipad, i wouldn't have taken a place that had no laundry. ohhh, what am i gonna do!!?! i had a housemate once that washed her clothes in the bathtub to avoid paying for laundry. i might just do that, it would be easier than lugging my clothes to the mat for the next few years.

NOOOO! i think i'm having an allergic reaction to pomegranates!!! those of you who have been visiting pspd since its inception, will know about my love affair with pomegranates. today in the grocery store my eyes lit up like i'd seen my one true love when i spotted them. it was a glorious moment.

so.... i finally caved and got a gmail account. but i'm not going to use it. nor am i going to tell you what the address is. its a 'just in case' thing. i regret not getting 'yelsel' as my address back when melinda suggested it in 2005, because its no longer available :(

ok so what should i tell you today about kenya today? i wanted to show you a picture from my trip to "hell's gate" national park, but blogger isn't working properly. so what can i tell you without visual aids??? umm, i don't know. sorry. oh how about... kenya is the size of ontario with the population of canada. they drive on the left side of the road and drive like maniacs. one night dan was reading the paper and said "here's a headline you only see in africa 'woman killed by 3 elephants' " and i started laughing hysterically. dita said "that's not funny" and i felt really bad, but it was how dan forwarded that made me laugh so hard. i have to suppress my laughter even now! i ate goat, i found that interesting that i was eating goat instead of AT the goat.

i feel badly because i had melissa over this evening and feel like i complained the entire time. but in my defense, she did arrive just as my laundry machine broke and i discovered i had no kraft dinner. i've been craving kraft dinner and ketchup chips (not together) since kenya and was disappointed to realize me and the frenchman ate my last box before i left. sorry melissa, i really did enjoy our visit :) sometimes its better not to crack open that can of worms after i decided to bury the hatchet.

ok well i'm going to go empty my laundry machine for the very last time and get into my warm jammies. on the bright side i did get ONE thing done tonight – put plastic on my window so its so much warmer in here now.

let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
