a charlatanical memoir: Apartment pictures!
http://maliorbust.blogspot.com/2007/12/apartment-pictures.html
This is Michele and my new apartment in NW DC:. The kitchen isn't a separate room, it actually makes up the back of the living room (I love that). And its a pretty sweet kitchen too. Granite counters, stained concrete floors. We haven't hung anything on the walls yet, but we've got some awesome stuff from Africa to hang up, plus we plan on printing and framing some of our photos from Mali. Our window out onto the world of Giant the supermarket with our dinky yet lovable Christmas tree. Our Map of Mali.

a charlatanical memoir: Snow Day DC
http://maliorbust.blogspot.com/2007/12/snow-day-dc.html
Ok, to start out with, I am a very bad person for not updating more frequently. I deserve your harsh words - especially those of you who might still read this living in Africa - that is, if any of you even bother anymore. Interesting tidbit of the day: false-consensus effect:. This explains why madmen like Bill O'Reilly believe in their 'War on Christmas'. Written by Outlaw Torn. On Wednesday, December 05, 2007. Ahh snowtime in DC.how I love thee. Miss you and talk to you soon! 2:31 AM, January 02, 2008.

Whirling in Mali: August 2008
http://whirlinginmali.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Talk story mali style. Sunday, August 10, 2008. I was reading through the journal I’ve kept (not very periodically) to record my experience in Mali. I came to my first entry and wanted to share it here. It seems to speak for how I am feeling in the midst of my last week. There is a map of Mali painted on the front wall of the hanger. Green, yellow and red the color. Two years later… I think I’m okay. All dogs go to heaven.even a Malian one like Boo. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

a charlatanical memoir: October 2007
http://maliorbust.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
An interesting experience from Mali translated into my perception of events elsewhere - it really is amazing how just a brief time immersed in a foreign culture can alter one's own outlook. Needless to say, it was a simple mistake we made that ended no worse other than some slight embarassment and a quick correction. I only wish the same was true everywhere. Signal, the palm of the hand projected forward with all fingers together and straight up. Please tell me its not the fact that I've actually lived i...

a charlatanical memoir: October 2006
http://maliorbust.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Corned Mutton Helper. Mm-mmm good. About a half hour from Niena, we didn't just hit the tiger-trap of a pothole, we rammed it straight on. Our right front tire exploded and a brief moment later we were pulled to the side of the road comparing the flatness of that tire with the flatness of the spare. It looks like this pit stop is going to last a considerable bit longer than normal. Mom/Dad, if you get this before you send your package, could you please include a car adapter for an iPod. We do not hav...
