Journal Entry:
Couldn't sleep last night. After I laid there for three hours I gave up and went and got my H/PC. Wrote a hex viewer - a small application that I had decided would be interesting. I think I'll probably clean it up and eventually release it on the web - like the character tool (A.C.T.) I started in Casa and finished in Goulmima. Finally went to sleep at five am. Got up at 10 - I couldn't sleep too late because Zora's grandmother (Itto) and daughter (?) were coming over for coffee. After their visit I spent the afternoon doing laundry - I hate doing laundry. I was way to sleepy to be motivated so I spent the rest of the afternoon, working on Hexer (what I'm calling the hex editor). In the evening Amy and I went to get her buta (gas bottle) filled - it ran out in the middle of heating water for a bath. When Amy went to class I went by the Internet cafe for 30 min then called my friend back in Seattle - it was good to touch base. Started cleaning / packing.

When Amy came home we went over to Lalimina and Touria's for an amazing diner - meat and vegetable couscous. Definitely an improvement over our gooey couscous the other night. After diner I was up later packing for tomorrow's departure.
