back in nola and with the great music (last night: man man! fun show) comes the inevitable drinking too much. It's just such a way of life here. I'd forgotten. nursing a hangover today - i just can't handle liquor like i used to. egh.
out much later than i meant to be last night with friends who work in my field. We talked about the hostage situation in Kenya.. We've all been to that mall. When I was working in Nairobi, I ate lunch there on Saturdays. When I checked yesterday the death toll was climbing, from 10 to 30, and this morning I saw it's almost 70. Sobering.
One of my colleagues was in no mood to go home last night, maybe the reason we all stayed out so late. His relationship is falling apart, I understood it to be mainly because of distance and the fact that he spends half his time overseas and she's not interested in that life. Sounded so familiar. It takes a lot of effort to keep these things going. And yet I also know so many people who make it work.
