kind of last minute, but i'm in the US for some training and fun. the whole thing came about pretty quickly and i've been too busy to update this blog lately, so i didn't really have a chance to tell a lot of people; so sorry if you didnt hear abuot this. my colleague and i left jo-burg on friday afternoon, got to new york on sat morning, took a taxi from jfk to laguardia to catch the next flight that was leaving in 2 hrs, got on the flight to denver to catch my brother's law school graduation commencement, missed the commencement but got to see my bro, mom, dad, and uncle, enjoyed denver's night life on sat night, got on a plane sun afternoon to chicago, got to chicago and took a car to the training center in st charles. so now im here for the week, until we leave on fri to check out chicago for 2 days and then new york for 2 days, then back to sa. it should be a fun ride, and i'm not sure i'll feel it until a couple days after im back to joburg.
i'm way too tired to write much right now, but if anyone is reading this and is going to be in chicago or new york and i haven't talked to you, please email me or call me (same # as before) and we can chill. the idea is to show my colleague a pretty good time in the states and of course to have a good time myself...i've already introduced him to probly more nigerians than he'll ever meet; he was subjected to watching and listening as the men in my family debated nigerian politics as usual. i wouldve been pretty scared, but he seemed to enjoy it. otherwise, its almost midnight here and im friggin tired. lates.
