Getting on

Came to New Cairo, NC on the bus and did not feel as bad as I always do, I guess my mind has finally adjusted to the fact that I will not get away with coming here. So I am starting to enjoy the rides... a good book and its all done! Am reading 'The Cambridge Companion to the African Novel" Edited by F. Abiola Irele, fantastic book and a comprehensive analysis on African authors and writing.I have decided that am going to get all the books on African writers from Ngugi Wa Thiongo to the Latest African writers. I kind of miss Pacesetters- those were classic ones. Am hoping that my children will read only African writers for the first few years - 10years of their lives, understand who they are in the African context and move on to meddle with all the other literature... even my favorite Jane Austen. Shakespeare and Charles Dickens will have to wait for a while... Am in the library and i like it... nice place to study and do work in comfortable chairs... Naseem called and said we have money!!!!!!!!! yay! Am excited, unexpected cash is always good, maybe I will actually get a bridge done from the Dentist!
