Crystal Trino's Journal Nov 2 2006 Entry

Casey arrives in Cairo.
November 2. Thursday Night.

Hi Journey.

It’s always false with fear, but no matter. See Mom just phoned and said Casey is tucked in safely in Cairo.

And five minutes later Casey texted me. She’ll be bunking down in Cairo for a month; she’s enrolled in a language immersion school. Looks like some of her Japanese divers from the New Caledonia stint have referred another group her. This group is touring Egypt in December. She lets on that she knows enough Egyptian to get by, but that her accent is a bit rough.

Right. For her picking up languages is like playing multiple sports: the more she learns, the easier it is. I bet she’s really out rubbing stelae and boning up on her glyphs.

I just want her to get that computer hooked up so we can talk for free again. It’s been over two weeks.

Nothing more from Sid on the painter. Nothing more from Casey about him, either. Better just let that sleeping dog lie for right now.

I’m going out for a long run. Still not a peep from Jeremy. Maybe I’ll just spend the weekend working at the shop.

And figuring out a way to steam ledger pages apart.

Goodnight, Journey.
