Kiss Me Through Da Phone

That was for you bonnie. Ivan was listening to it today and I started dancing an he got embarrassed like always. So...I got sick. Not just homesick, but sick-sick. Almost everyone in our whole house except for 5 people did. I was feeling a little sick monday morning but thought I was imagining it. I didn't eat anything cause I couldn't get anyting down. Then, I was in Mukono meeting with a teacher and I was walking with her. All of the sudden I realized I was on the ground and pushing myself up thinking, "oh man that hurt." I blacked out and scraped up both my knees and elbows pretty bad. Then I went home and fell asleep at like 6pm without any food. All throughout the night I was....in the bathroom. Then I slept almost the entire day. I had the worst fever I can ever remember having in my whole entire life. I would be FREEZING. I would be shaking and so cold even with leggings, sweatpants, a skirt, 3 shirts and a sweatshirt, and a huge warm blanket.....SO COLD. Then about a half hour later, I would be sweating like I just ran 10 miles outside in the middle of Africa. I was dripping. Then again, freezing, cold, freezing, cold. I was really dizzy and had a horrible headache. Like...worse than all my thyroid bad days combined. It was horrible. Today I'm pretty weak and can't eat anything, but I'm okay. I am really sore too, like my back kills. We thought it was the food at first, but we think it may be somethign that's going around because our guard david and our neighbors are really sick too. Um...yeah...but I'm doing a lot better today. It just made me mroe homesick to be really sick and away from home. I want my mommy. But I'll be better tomorrow. Today will be chill.
So, have I mentioned that men hold hands here? It still freaks me out a little bit. But I'm getting used to it. It's like so normal to them. Sick. Just wanted to mention that. We've decided the people here just tell us that but really Lugazi is the Gay capital of Uganda. Haha.
I have so much more to say, but my time is up for today. More on friday.
Everyone who wrote me sweet e-mails and notes of encouragement, thank you so much! I am still homesick, but most of you said to stay busy and that will take it away, and once I am feeling a little more...stable...I will be up and moving and keep myself going. So thank you. I have the best friends in the whole world. I love you all. Especially my family :)
Love, Daniella (the neighborhood kids can't say Dani so they just started calling me Daniella)
