I totally stole this blog post idea from my friend Meredith. Thought I would share about a few things that are my current favorites.
1. Electricity. This is truly something you just don't appreciate until you don't have it. Every time the lights and air conditioner turn on, I breathe a sigh of relief.
2. My Lebanese Blackberry. I can whatsapp my friends whenever I want. I can play solitaire and check Facebook. It's niiiiiiiice.
3. The one can of Diet Dr. Pepper, complete with Arabic script, that I have stashed in the fridge. I found it my first day in Beirut, and haven't seen another since. I've been saving it for a special occasion, but I don't know what that's going to be yet.
4. My roommates here in Lebanon. Kim, Samantha, and Jessica.
5. The vanilla-caramel ice cream I found down the road at Al Fakhani, with Nutella drizzled on top. Mmmmmm...
6. "Lie to Me" Season 1. Watch the whole season while I was home sick today. I'm hooked.
That's just a few things for now. I'll keep you updated if I think of anymore.
Super fun loves. Girl. sorry about the sickies. I forwarded your message to Erin Smith who went through the same thing a few years ago and all she said was, "Shingles are the worst!" Not all that helpful except acknowledgement that it is yucky.
