Keep me entertained!

So, home dogs...

I need your suggestions. If you don't want Crazy-Kelly when I come home, I need to take something to keep me entertained. A challenge. A project. An escape from the hum drum life of Sundays off. My first choice was to read Lord of the Rings again, but I gotta keep my street cred. Suggestions?

In preparation

I reckon this blog is the best way of communicating with my dear family and friends while I'm away... ON MY FIELD TRIP TO THE OKAVANGO DELTA!!! :) I've got a short job as a research assistant, working with a PhD student from UKZN, Michelle Payne. We'll be there for about 3 months, starting around 15 February 2010.

So if you're interested in my news and keeping in touch with me, following this blog should be the easiest way.

For now...I'm busying myself with preparing all my equipment. Apparently I need to take a mozzie net - for mozzies, obviously, but also to prevent the scorpions in the roof from falling into my bed!!! Flip. When I was on standard 4 tour I had a nightmare that there was a scorpion on my pillow - I screamed and jumped up and woke up everyone in the whole camp. I still haven't got over it.

Cheers for now :)
