Celebrity

I’m such a celebrity here! Going to go get bread for my spicy bean dip I got many a Mariam! A Salut! from Dr. Diarra passing on his moto; a cherie de moi! from the coffee guy who wants to go back to the states with me and be my servant; a bon soir! from Vieux at the bus station and a Ay no mille francs from some bold little garibou—who asks for 1000CFA? I refuse them even if they’re only begging for 25F!
