The local selection committee...

...for the seminar in Burkina Faso was very impressed by me, and my application goes to Ottawa! One down, one to go - and by that I mean committees. Only, the next one doesn't get to meet me. All they have is what I wrote. And I wrote that last Sunday while still mildly drunk...but hey, the local guys liked it.
So, now I get to wait until December 15 to find out.
