Things I've learned this week...and it's only Wednesday

It sucks to come home from a nice night away to find your computer bag and all its contents missing.
It sucks that none of the guards noticed any suspicious activity.
It's extrememly difficult to to think they're involved.
It's stupid to keep your backup in the same place as your computer.
Your neighbourhood UN security coordinator can make you feel like an idiot for not having had alarms installed in the house.
Cream cheese doesn't taste good on pizza... but apple and procuitto do.
Running over your dog is the worst feeling in the world.
Tanzania is a shitty place to have a veterinary emergency.
But even old Tanzanian men can be soft hearted when it comes to hurt puppy.
I can cry. and cry. and cry.
I can't run when my stomach hurts.
Puppies get allergic reactions to drugs and get hives.


Constant headaches suck.
I'm shitty at taking a self-test for malaria.
You can call the radio station and ask them to announce that a reward will be paid to anyone who "finds" your stolen property. I don't know if it works, but figure it's worth a try.
Good neighbours are worth their weight in gold.. or something seriously valuable.
Neighbours can save your puppy's life with optimism.

Oh, and power rationing sucks, but I knew that already, it has just been reconfirmed the last couple weeks with less at 12 hours of electricity a day.
