Hola from Mexico
I'm in Mexico City for a week on another field campaign to study air pollution -- certainly an appropriate place to study! I'll only be here for a week and the only knitting I brought was a sock. That's ok, though, because there's a lot more work time than knitting time, and at the end of the day I'm too tired to pay enough attention. So far things here are fine, instruments are running, and one day of food hasn't made me sick, so I'll keep a positive perspective.
I probably won't write again until I'm back on Tuesday, unless I somehow run across a yarn store (how do you say that in Spanish? I do have the yellow pages...) and have to talk about it.
Posted by sesamest at March 10, 2006 10:46 AMThank you! And I know you know probably every kind of professor out there. Yes, I agree - I'll take the positive aspects out of this situation and whatever learning opportunities there might be...in the end, it's the *kids* that matter most and if I manage to help any of them out, even one, in any way at all, that makes it all worth it. See you when you come home! It's a zipper date. That is, if you don't have black lung by then. ;-)
Posted by: marta at March 10, 2006 03:59 PMI think it would be more like brown lung, but hopefully I won't be that badly off. Amazingly, we sit "inside" a room on the roof of a four-story building, but our room has most of one wall open to the outside, so "inside" and "outside" aren't very different. Although it looks nasty outside, it doesn't feel bad in my lungs, so it certainly could be worse!!
