turkey!

so i'm back at work after a week of meetings and tourings in istanbul. i had some internet troubles while i was there, and some intense frustrations with a turkish keyboard (they have two i's, and the wrong one is on the i key! ugh), but i managed to write some things down on trusty ol' notepad. readers' digest version: good time, will go back soon.

a mosquito bit the palm of my hand last night! it's very annoying. i think it's time to invest in a screen for my window.
