Puni's dream

I was so happy to see Sechele Sechele yesterday afternoon. He had just come back from the CDC's workshop in Ghanzi. Puni was waiting to be picked up for her trip to the Amway meeting in South Africa. I told Sechele how she got up that morning and out of the blue said, "Maria, I tell you I'm going to be a millionaire in many currencies! Rand. Pula. Dollars. Euro!"
I told Sechele I had cracked up.
He looked over at Puni and said, "You see why I am never bored!"
They've been together 17 years. He made sure he waited until she was off with her friends before he high-tailed it to the squash courts. He hadn't played in days and was feeling the effects of too much road food.
Good to have him back in Gabs.

My friend, Ted, and his wife, Mary Ann, hosted a Safari Send-Off for me in Austin and treated me to a special mix of African music that already a UB student and a professor want to download.
