Perhaps you have noticed the absence of any dialogue from Carl, or maybe not. Regardless, he is experiencing the first negative aspect of his Bolivian adventure.

It could be altitude sickness or perhaps just a bug

his antibodies haven't met yet.

Doesn't really matter, when you are sick, you are sick!

He is extremely tired, not hungry,

(both of which are very out of character for),

and the really special part, he is doing the Bolivian foxtrot.

He has only been under the weather for about 24 hours

and is feeling much better as we speak.

Prior to the last 24 hours, he had a wonderful week. Was a guest at a small dinner party with some interesting new friends, attending a fun 50th birthday party

with wonderful music and dancing,

a really special evening with some of his new faculty.

All in all his social life is off to a great start

and he is enjoying it all very much.

I am sure he will be back on line with you all shortly.

For those who care, I am still at home taking out my own garbage!

Poor, poor pitiful me!
