Sunday, November 19, 2006. Half mile left out my front door. Western Sahara. It's pretty. And landminey. Posted by Erin at 12:46 PM. Friday, November 10, 2006. It's very populated for a place rumored to be filled with landmines. Posted by Erin at 12:30 PM. View my complete profile. Quietly Saying Goodbye, Loudly Freaking Out Well.

Quietly Freaking Out: April 2007
http://quietlyfreakingout.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 22, 2007. Hey everyone, I'm coming home in June! Reserve your spot now, I'll only be around for a couple of weeks. How many Peace Corps volunteers does it take to push a bus out of the sand? And we were bee-lining it for Dakar (seriously, why is everyone still honking at us? So I guess in Senegal, they have road rules. Rules like, stay in your own lane. And yield to pedestrians. And the freeway on-ramp is not a turn-lane. What can I say about WAIST? This picture of Patrick courtesy of my No...

Quietly Freaking Out: February 2007
http://quietlyfreakingout.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 22, 2007. Hmm Perhaps it's time to leave? Posted by Erin at 9:33 PM. Saturday, February 03, 2007. It seems like a month since I've been back in Nouadhibou, and it hasn't even been a week. (Ok, now it's been a month. I'm a slow blogger.). Did everyone have a lovely holiday season? Here, we had a sandstorm. It was nice for the simple reason it was different than another cloudless, clear blue sky. Whoever thought it possible to tire of perfect, sunny weather? All just to get to a city tha...

Quietly Freaking Out: May 2006
http://quietlyfreakingout.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 25, 2006. Posted by Erin at 4:35 AM. Wednesday, May 24, 2006. One more paper, one thesis, and one oral defense and I'm done then two weeks of rest and trees and maybe some Northwest ocean and woosh, off to Africa. Crazy. Just.crazy. It's not like I'm desperate to leave the United States or renounce my citizenship (although this article is so funny, it makes me want to try). Who wouldn't want to feel some sort of belonging in a place where soft urban dwellers so clearly do not? I didn't even...

Tuesday, April 25, 2006. The 12th century city of Chinguetti. I'm trying to get into this. I could do a camel crossing. Posted by Erin at 12:55 PM. Monday, April 24, 2006. This is Bubs the banana slug. He's the star of my incredibly doomed final project for school and if asked, he'll probably deny ever knowing me. Disloyal bastard. This is kinda cool. 10 minutes from the beach. I can handle that. I like what they wrote about Nouakchott:. Posted by Erin at 3:58 AM. Monday, April 17, 2006. We went to coffe...

Quietly Freaking Out: June 2006
http://quietlyfreakingout.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 20, 2006. I'm taking a break from my daily routine of hyperventilating, passing out, surrendering to fear-induced paralysis and then drinking heavily, to reflect on my life here in Seattle. I've also managed to delete all of my email in some sort of impulsive haze. I could only curl up in a ball and cry last Wednesday. If I haven't responded to you recently, please try again. Finally, my thesis defense went fairly well. Thank you John Bransford (gulp! Ha ha, suckers! Thursday, June 01, 2006.

Quietly Freaking Out: September 2006
http://quietlyfreakingout.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 27, 2006. Should be able to goddamn understand me. And I replied to Mohammed's slack-jawed expression: "I am a gymnast" and performed a handstand thusly to support my argument. Mohammed looked thoroughly confused, laughed, and returned to his house. Hey, look at us integrate. Posted by Erin at 9:33 AM. Friday, September 15, 2006. Kaedi: I lived here, in this "house" for 2 months. Our Little.uhhh.Unpaid Child Helper? Life Via Taxi Brousse. Posted by Erin at 9:46 AM. For those of you w...
