On Monday nights in the Senegal days, a few of us (Cori, Barb, Phil, and myself) would gather and watch Alias and 24. Well, it seems that 24 is an overseas experience on various continents. My roommate, Amy, got hooked on it while in Taiwan. Her friend from Taiwan is visiting this week...so...we went out and rented the whole season 4 of 24 and have been having a 24 marathon for the last 2 days. It's a bit ridiculous, but we have to have it done by Wednesday...so, in 2 days we have watched 17 episodes. I don't know how people watch it from week to week on TV...we have a hard time stopping after watching 10 of them! Anyhow, I think we will finish tomorrow...if you are a 24 fan and have not seen season 4, its VERY addicting, so here is your warning. :)

In other news, our house did in fact get a new roommate today. So now house 17 will be made up of the four of us...and to end, I have to say that the weather down here in SC has been quite lovely. Went for a walk tonight in sweatpants and a t-shirt...yesterday played soccer in the front yard. Quite the change from bitter cold winds...though I am told it will get "cold" here yet. I guess we'll see. :)

Oh...and an update on the Africa Cup...just checked the scores on the matches...looks like Ghana beat out Senegal which was sad to see...but looks like my "American sister", Cori's team (Guinea) is doing well thus far! Check it all out if you like...Africa Cup.
