fade to black

hello everyone.
i must hurry because i don't know whether or not i will be able to finish as the electricity comes and goes here.  i had a long email to you and before i could send it....black. 
we actually have some great moments in the film where everything is black.  so funny.  so normal for these people. 
i want to tell you everything.  i have experienced so much the last few days.
driving through hills.  chasing goats (go goats! go goats! for you mom).  drinking holy water.  kissing the steps of temples.  watching bill eat goats brains (i became a vegetarian in that moment).  i found found out what it feels like to be famous.  i have been followed, stared at, had my picture taken many times.  it really became quite funny.  at one point bill took the camera to film boy after boy after boy having their picture taken with me.  i think this moment might make the film.  heehee  the title of the film has changed many times.  "bill & simone's excellent adventure" "it's only a suggestion" "inside kurdistan" "a girl with a camera"
we have been having many 'lost in translation moments'.  we have been getting a lot of good stuff and are very happy with our work.  we have entered a world we didn't really expect.  people are so kind and giving.  they love americans and the united states. 
today, i am tired.  i need some space.  i want i don't know, a pedicure.  because of the rebuilding of iraq there is construction everywhere.  there is continual dust everywhere.  i couldn't handle it, but these people are just so grateful.  honestly this has been amazing in that i must look at myself and realize that i have a great life.  we are staying with a family right now that has over 900 years of history in iraq.  one of the men is now fighting the government to take back the land that was taken from the people when saddam came to power.  amazing.  we have interviewed all of them so tonight we have promised they can interview us.  haha
my brain is full, my heart is light, i miss you all.  i crave the comfort of home.  just your faces.  i love this experience.  there is so much more to tell you.  later.  or we can all just go see this film. 
i love you. 
please write when you have a minute.  i love hearing from you. 
love,
-simone
