... and what a 'Stan it will be, if it happens!
Plans are still up in the air but I might, might, might be going to Afghanistan this weekend. E is at the Afghan consulate right now with both our passports trying to get us visas, and only when/if those are procured will we start booking flights and packing hijabs (in my case, not his).
I know, right? But we know a guy in Kabul (met him through some mutual friends when he was visiting Dubai) - 30something Afghan-American who grew up in Brooklyn, went to Cornell, and now works for some UN agency in Afghanistan - and he's invited us to come as his guests, so I feel pretty kind of okay about it. Plus it's a 2.5-hour flight and we'd go for, like, 36 hours.
Crazy is in the eye of the beholder, I think.
