Roughin' It
Hi All,
You guys make me feel so good, you're reading this and making comments!! Sorry I've been offline for a while. We got back from Ganje on Saturday night and, (instead of posting) we went out to a pub to watch some futbol, then went to a small club, then went to a fun nightclub--til 0500, or so. This Euro-schedule is working out well with my jet-lag. I am so tired I can't form sentences during the day. But, about 5pm or so (0800 EST) I totally wake up and have tons of energy. So, having dinner around 10pm, then going out until 0500 (8pm EST) is perfect!
Today I spent the day at the Hyatt hotel. Nice pool/spa and work out facility and lounge to watch the French Open. Nursed a painful hangover by the pool until, or course, 5 pm then had a great work out, and watched Nadal beat Federer(YES!! I love that passionate hottie.) Then went to dinner at 10pm and watched more futbol, and now its 1220 and I'm back at my hotel.
There's a guesthouse on the 8th floor of this hotel with a lounge and they're playing the Angola-Portugal game. I'm really tempted to go up there and watch it with all the oil pipeline workers from the UK who are all over the city, but I probably shouldn't perpetuate my body-clock adjustment problems.
Tomorrow I'm going to Sheki which is another 5 hours away but its where our primary health care program will be based out of. It supposed to be absolutely beautiful, so I'll try to get some more photos. I'll be in town Tuesday then out to areas in southern Azerbaijan (not so pretty) for Wednesday and Thursday. I'm going to end this one now and post it, then publish some photos with explanations as separate posts.
Thank you for the map, Mac-istan IT wizard, genius, stud.
You know, all day I think of interesting things, I mean really brilliant, fascinating things I want to share with you. Then, when I sit down to write, I can't remember any of them. Its kind of impossible to have a notepad with me all the time to jot stuff down, but also frustrating to forget the things I want to tell you. Then again, this blog is really just to let you know I'm alive and very well, not necessarily to wax poetic about the world through my eyes. ok, glad we got that figured out. In the mean time, I'll work on remembering the good stuff to tell you, and if you have any questions about any places/people/culture, etc., please ask.
Besos,
Mac/CF

good idea to sleep. better to see the sights and have intelligent conversation during the day time hours! sounds like you are well.
"passionate hottie"? how can you like that ponce with his greasy hair and white capris?? ugh! Federer, on the other hand, is the pinnacle of finesse and beauty... when he doesn't remind me of Quentin Tarantino, that is.
PS Hi Mac. =)
PPS I like your blog.
PPPS Go Team Oranje!!
hi Kiddo..just suffered through the USA .. Chezk game ...how God awful..stay healthy..wealthy and WISE..sounds like you're having a great time..
Greasy hair? Exsqueeze me, Smelly, but that is sweat. The same sweat that glistens on his GORGEOUS muscular arms. I have to concede your point about the capri pants. But, wasn't it fun that the camera kept panning to him picking out his wedgie? None of that kind of entertainment from Federer. Its a matter of taste obviously, like the age-old Angelina or Jennifer question. It won't be settled any time soon, but, until that time, my stud is up on yours 5-1....

I'm not being authoritarian about the comments--that deleted comment above was a copy of the one I already posted. But I will lot allow Nadal bashing on my blog!!! (the first fatwa of Mac-istan)
now, no one could ever say anything bad about andre!! could you imagine looking into THOSE brown eyes over dinner....
I must disagree. Nadal is hideous, there is no doubt about it.
