Kisii Day

09/14/05

A Kisii day. I bought chicken wire in the rain. The power was out in the internet café for an hour. I was reading Arrow Of God. I was in the front of the matatu on the way there, I actually felt bad because I accidentally cut in front of this guy waiting to board at the Kanga stage. I felt bad, but I didn't get out and give him the seat.

I ate three somosas, dripping in oil. I'm getting fatter.

In the evening I met with Robert and Peter, the 25-year veteran of poultry farming (and primary school science teacher.) He gave us lots of advice, and agreed to help the project.
