I was in Mazar-e-sharif in 2012. Those baby camels are so fucking cute.

I was in Herat and, for the last two or so months, Kabul. I didn't see any camels, but at the bazaar, I saw a canary with what looked like Beatles hair. Cute little guy! And a wild dog down by the airfield that looked like a corgi with long coyote legs. And a camel spider on a door handle by the Lithuanians' office. Fuck that.

Gloster canary!

Aren't they adorable? He was in a cage, hanging from the eaves of one of the shops. I really want one, both because he reminds me of my time there, and because they don't sing very loud. I love cockatiels and cockatoos but I can't handle the screaming.
Sometimes I feel like I went to Narnia. I don't have much to prove I was there except a photo album, and since I'm the one that took all the photos and I'm not in any of them, I have a hard time making it feel real. I wish I had a little Narnia bird of my own that I can look at and remember that it happened.
