On with the waiting game

5:40PM Central Afghan Time

I did some more writing after my post last night, followed by more today, so I’m now at the 3,000-word mark on “Learning Curve”. As is often the case, I’m not quite sure just what I’m doing with this story (while I know the broad outlines, I have only a vague idea where the story itself is leading me), but I’ve been through that before and I’m willing to follow the narrative and have some confidence in the eventual result.

Whatever work they’ve been doing on the power situation must be finished; electricity stayed on all day. I got up early, came in before breakfast to do lots of Net-browsing before the daily cut arrived, and then it didn’t; I ate breakfast, returned to the B-hut, and slept until noon. In relative comfort. Because the building didn’t turn into a dry sauna.

Something like three weeks before we’re back in the States. For now, nothing but laying around and relaxing. Might as well enjoy it before we have to deal with the black pit of arbitrary oppressive rules and toxic personalities that is BAF.
