I just thought I'd let you know that I'm in Cairo right now and probably won't be posting again until sometime next week. I've been really busy, so I'm not exactly sure what I said on here about what is going on with my job situation, but I decided to change schools and extend my contract for another four months. My original school finished up last Friday, and work at the new school won't start until June 16th. So as part of the layover, I ended up with about a week and a half of unexpected (unpaid) vacation. Wasn't long enough to go home, so I went to visit my high school friend in Egypt before he returns home later this month.
On another note, I've been winning the beard war. I didn't shave after the last incident and no one said anything when I visited my new school. The principal even told me that I 'looked like the kids would like me.' I'm sure the war isn't over yet, but I'll take that as a compliment and add one victory point to my total. I did shave before coming to Cairo, but it was more because of the heat, sun, and my personal desire not to have to worry about it while I'm on vacation. Don't worry, though, I can already see it coming back.
I've got to leave soon and head over the Egyptian museum now. Until next time...

Ah! Mummy! I get it!
And for the record I think you should have let your beard grow into a straggly Ewan-McGregor-circa-Long-Way-Round number whilst you were in Egypt. But that's just me.
