Being a Stirring Account of adventures in Tanzania of a Blood and Thunder nature tinged with a Hue of Drama and a side of Angsty Flashbacks. Sponsored by the Peace Corps, in whose service I am making the world a Better Place.
I'm done with Peace Corps. I am now spending a month as a corporate sellout in China. It's a long story.

Further Evidence Supporting my Hypothesis that I will Die in an Electrical Fire in this Country
I finally got the college to send someone to check my wiring. Apparently the problems I was having were because the electric company electricians just didn't bother reattaching all the ground wires when they installed a meter. I dislike sentences of the form "I am not a(n) ____ but ____." Nevertheless, I am not an electrician, but grounding is important! Important in a not-burning-things-down sort of way. It's times like this I kind of hate this country.
Usiwasiwasi.... hope all's well now.
ReplyDeleteAsante! [Thank you] I will feel much better once I get a chance to go relax, which will happen just as soon as this semester ends.
