pinksoniaIt may be too early to say *crosses fingers to avoid the jinx,* but it looks like I may get to actually live in my apartment for the next couple of months. I got assigned to the first week of levee work, was given my own set of maps, and have generally been included in the planning with in the last week. I could do with some time not living in hotels -- where I can cook real food and sleep on fitted sheets and not have drunk people constantly hanging out outside of my room. Now if only this could have coincided with choir season instead of being in the summer when the choir is off. Someday.
In related news, I now seem to be becoming particularly susceptible to heat rash. I looked it up and the general consensus for prevention is to stay inside in the air-conditioning and to avoid sweating. Ummm. Well, my current work is outside, with no shade, in Louisiana, in the summer. The likelihood of me being able to avoid heat and humidity is non-existent. Anybody know a good cure for heat rash? I feel like this is doing my part to make archaeology sound way less glamorous than people think it is.
