I have all of my support money.
I am leaving for Charlotte on September 6. That's 8 days from now. I am leaving for Nigeria on September 10. For two months.
How is she going to manage this, you wonder? I have no idea. I don't even know yet what I'm packing, let alone have it anywhere near a suitcase. Advice, anyone? Please!?!?! I just happened to realize that I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't...okay, whatever. I'm doing this, it's gonna happen. Might as well just fasten the safety belt and go. Okay, no, this is fine. We can do this.
Right?
"Nero fastened the guilt...on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty...at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judea, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome..." --Tacitus, The Annals

Hurrah! Packing: start with underwear, and put it in a bag that is easily reached, along with toothbrush and paste. I'm sure bug spray with deet would probably be useful...more than that you'll have to ask someone who's actually been to Africa. Fortunately, I think we know more people of that category than the average American would--Tineke, Tim, Shellie, Rodney, Dave, 10% of Houghton...
