life on the wand

I finally got around to posting my last several hair growth project pictures. I sadly report that the project is at least temporarily suspended, if not completely terminated. If was fun for a while, but finally the angst overcame the fun I gave in to the shears.

So, I am temporarily back on the project called WAND, and have learned something about Islam. The loos at the building used to all be like all the blue stalls at the end of the picture. However, now you can see that there is a new special room at the end nearest the camera that required the removal of 3 or 4 stalls.

Why were three stalls replaced with one room, you might ask? Well, apparently there is a right way and wrong way to use the loo in Islam (see Muslim bathroom etiquette).

Here is shot inside the bathroom. It seems to provide all the requirements for a proper Muslim loo, with enhanced privacy, being close to the ground, not facing the wrong direction (you would face north if using this loo), etc.

Okay, so I have been a bit remiss in my blogging as of late. We had guests join us in England toward the end of March, and then packed up our house (and my computer) and had them shipped to the US, traveled around the continent for three weeks, moved back to the US, the computer (and other stuff) arrived in the US about 3 weeks later, but I never did get around to writing about it. I haven't even updated my hair growth project site.

Funny thing is, I am back in England this week, and all the sudden I feel like blogging again. Must be the location! No writing inspiration in the US!

Some pictures from the European trip are posted at Paris, Venice, Rome, Train, Nice, and Villanova i la Geltru.
