Sorry no updates

Last week I was completely exhausted after our excursion. We just had a 3-day weekend and I averaged about 17 hours of sleep a day. Luckily, I'm not just getting old - a good chunk of our group is pretty wiped out. I'm doing okay now, but tomorrow is lecture day, with a bonus speech from the foreign ministry, and then Monday morning I leave on the 3rd Excursion. Assuming I survive this trip to the base of the Rub al-Khali, I will try to post next weekend (Thurs/Fri for me). Once we return, there's about 1 week of school left, then a party, then we de-orientate in Muscat for a few days, then it's back to Fayetteville!
