In retrospect...

I probably should have considered the following:

1. Liberians put fish in every damn thing which would be cool if I weren't deathly allergic. Classic.

2. Liberians do not drink coffee. I spent all morning looking for one human who had both Folgers and milk and would sell me this combination of things.

3. Showers are a magical thing. When you live in a gated compound abandoned by the seminary (which refused to pay its water bill), "showering" entails getting into the shower, remembering where you are, then immediately getting out and beginning the chore of boiling water, combining it with well water and attempting to recreate your American life.

Still the best decision I've made in years.
