I found my corner store! Everyone needs one, right? And mine is a little Indian shop off of Earl Hague. They have all the little Indian treats a girl could ever want, and frankly -- they don't have much else. Nonetheless, it is a store, and it is on the corner nearest my humble abode: so there you have it -- my corner store. Oh, and they also sell "coke light" which I have grown to appreciate. I'm not really sure WHAT it is... it tastes much better than diet coke (which makes me think that it probably has sugar in it, or something else unhealthy). I think I'll have to ration myself before this becomes an addiction ;)
Today I registered with the U.S. counsulate in Durban, and they gave me the general travel warnings. Apparently noone in the world likes Americans, and therefore we are in danger everywhere. Beware readers: you may think that I am in danger -- but YOU are in danger too!! Unfortunately, the travel warning was much less clear about exactly what type of danger we are all in. Inspite of that, this omnipresent danger seems most serious in the eyes of the State Department, so I'd advise you to take appropriate precautions -- and then write me and let me know what precautions are appropriate :)
Tomorrow the Umich students from Jo'Burg are coming, and we might take them to a rugby game if they are interested. I've never seen a rugby match before, so it should be fun :)
Alright then, enough from me today -- I'm going to retire so I can be up and ready for my run tomorrow.
As we say in Durban, "Cheers!"
