Ok, well not really - technically its money I am ’suppose’ to live with for groceries and what not - BUT BUT BUT - first we have to understand some things -
1. Fatima is leaving (with the kids) for America in about 25 days
2. Sas is going to America tommorrow
3. I have been eating well ALL WEEK, well not totally, but not too shabbily either
4. I had NO CASH in my hands, because I sent ALL my jordanian ‘on hand cash’ into my american bank account to buy airline tickets (and I HAVE No real savings).
5. My Friend used my credit card to buy some services
6. So I just realized yesterday that since I am leaving in a day, I should probably you know set aside some cash for the trip and leave some with the family while I myself am gone for 3 weeks before they go
7. Papa JOHNS Just came to AMMAN, PAPA FREAKING JOHNS I am SO SO SO sick and tired of the pizza situation in jordan - firstly, it costs an ARM and a leg - its not something you eat ‘just to eat’ its a fancy meal, its just to freaking much - so I don’t eat pizza that much, but even while saying that I still eat pizza too much, so I am VERY sick of it - but the one thing that gets me into pizza again, is just its mention so look: (even others are excited): http://www.flickr.com/photos/dbjorgen/2437811355/
And listen to today, I ate just an apple, salaf (wait, I did not eat the apple?) just salad, cofee and lots of water today - and i feel quite good and my stomach feels quite good -
Now when I travel (My flight leaves at 11AM tommorrow), I stay awake all night, and I make sure good and ready that I AM SO SO SO sleepy that I can not even stay awake for a 30 minute connecting flight - its beautiful lets say i am going from like ohio to nyc by flight, I WILL FALL asleep even in that - so I do this to make sure I am not bored - and again, I have no iPod, I have no dvd player, and I have no laptop that has crazy battery life, and I am not going to spend 20 JOD on a book written in english - though in the states you can usually pick up a book for like 5-10 bucks on the way to the destination - So I have nothng to do, and in ALL my life, I have never had one interesting person sit beside me when I am flying - not even once - ever. (oh wait, once I met a really cool pastor of a church who had his own rock and roll church, who was a sculptor, he was ok, we talked about how to better serve christans or something) but im not counting on it, and oh yea on international flights, you meet ‘hippes’ and intellectuals, or foreigeners, both kinds of people that I abhorr.
So now, since I was getting the cash ready, i picked up any cash owed me, and its all in my book bag right now, I FEEL good, and I plan to be up all night - so We will goto Papa Johns, they also opened a Caribou Cofee, if its in the same vicinity then for sure - WASTE a perfectly good amount of money for ‘pizza’ get some more pizza - and get some dvds and go home - and stay up all night eating pizza and watching movies - then goto the airport.
And when i get to america the first thing I am going to do (ONE of my friends better do this for me, i don’t care who you are or are not, somene better buy me a pizza hut pan pizza) - I have officially decided not to buy anything when I am in america except a few laptops for business maybe that’s about it -
So its ALL About the food REALLY this time. Maybe its really sad, but the part I am looking to most (besides my parents, is the food) - i have tried this last year to cook my own food, from scratch - im getting quite able at it, but i want to learn how to make my moms food
So the week that I am in ohio, I am going to learn from her a DISH every night how to make - from biryani to passendei
In shaa Allaah
Sas
Papa JOhns!
