Youd Better Bring Your A-Game

Hey hEY hey! If you sent me a gmail recently... thqnk you, I will respond tomorrow when I go to the embassy bc the internet cafe doesnt like gmail... I dont know why. We are working on GMT here in Togo (§0ULL@)... Im not sure how thqt translates to CYP time but 1400GMT is 1000EST and 900CST. Whew! too much math for me! I started teaching yesterday and it quickly became apparent that I am working with some of the brightest students in Togo. So I am going to have to bring my A-game or go home. Phinally, the PHONE thing. Okay, I dont know about the 011 number. Someone told me to try 00 plus the country code 228 plus the number 011-1852. Could someone please try that? or something else bc 0112280111852 is not working.

Je ne mange pas le jambon!

Today I accepted a Fellowship sponsored by the Department of State and Georgetown University. The fellowship will send me to Lome, Togo (West Africa) for ten months to teach at L'Ecole Nationale d'Administration and American Corner at the University of Lome.

So... yeah. wow. I am scheduled to leave in September.
