Woke up with a bad migraine this morning. It's rare that I wake up with one and the drugs just seem to numb it.

So guess who's filling out an application for the coast guard None other than my little Moroccan sardine. Crazy guy, he's going with a friend of his--who knows.

The weather is absolutely beautiful out. I hope it stays this way for awhile.

I'll probably go out for a walk in a bit and breathe deeply-walking always seems to help my headaches.

Issame and I celebrated Ashura last night with some mint tea and almonds. I fell asleep with my head on his lap while we were watching TV. We were both quite upset about the two bombings in Iraq.

Let's pray for peace!
