My Northern Ugandan bosses and colleagues here are so wonderful. I have great respect for them. They are smart and committed and I want to gather them together and give them flowers and big hugs and stuff like that. I appreciate them so much. They save our project on a day-to-day basis by telling us, not only about correct cultural etiquette, but also their own ideas as to what our research should be based around. They are all, all, all brilliant. How were we so lucky to find them?

I don’t feel well at all today. Not for any parasitic reasons (knock on wood) but because I’m female and the moon has run its 28-day course. Headache! Inability to concentrate! Tiredness! Oooh.
