What do you think?

Do you think that men should be allowed to divorce their wives in Egypt through a text message? This is the question facing the Islamic heads of Egypt.

I think it makes it too easy for chicken-shit men.

Pagen Culture

I was taking my brother in law to Lucille's and as we drove past the Supreme Court he said...

"For an Islamic country Egyptians sure do take pride in pagen culture."

I thought it was brilliant.

:o)

(Mechanical Crowds.. no mention of driving in this post!)

My driving log...

Yesterday I woke up and found a message from a friend reminding me that Lucille's is serving breakfast all day...
So, naturally I cannot pass up Lucille's and we make plans to go there. I decide to be the nice older sister and invite my brothers to join in on the festivities....
I leave Zamalek and head to Mohandessien to pick up my friend. From there we go to Heliopolis to pick up my brothers. From Heliopolis we head to Maadi to enjoy Lucille's. After we eat it is back to Heliopolis to drop off my brothers. We dump them and back to Mohandessien it is. I leave my friend and we make plans to meet in an hour. I drive back to Zamalek and shower and head back to Mohandessien to pick her up because her car is at the repair shop. We then head over to Dokki for a pot luck and a friend's going away party. From Dokki it is all the way to Kattamaya to meet another friend. After Kattamaya it is back to Zamalek.

So, to recap that...
My driving log yesterday was...

Zamalek-Mohandessien-Heliopolis- Maadi-Heliopolis-Mohandessien-Zamalek-Mohandessien-Dokki-Kattamaya-Zamalek

Holy Shit!!!
No fucking wonder I do not think Cairo is a big city anymore!!!!!

New favourite quote...

A chat with Insomniac ended with her telling me to...

"drive safely, not egyptianly"



I personally think that brilliant is the only way to describe it!
