• I <3 democracy.

    This is where I’m voting. This is how you can find out where you are voting.

  • First time this, first time that.

    My mom came for the first time to Israel this past week. Among other things, the highlights were: – watching her enjoy our aparment– showing her the wedding hall– taking her to the Old City, Mahane Yehuda, downtown, the German Colony– introducing her to my office (including my bosses…)– co-hosting the small engagement party we…

  • Translatorship.

    Today I served as a translator between Tel Avivian bridal shop owners and designers and my Hebrew-illeterate mother… Can I retroactively change my Hebrew SAT II score now? That 400 score seems so harsh.

  • On Purim.

    I found this today and it is relavent to Purim as it can’t help but start you thinking: Who are our real enemies? Who can you trust, who should you shy away from association? What is true and what is false? How far are we willing to go to find answers, right wrongs? Anyways, here…

  • A funeral attendance.

    Today I completed my witnessing of the circle of life in Israel series by attending a funeral. How I see it: Marriage – Birth – Funeral (or Birth – Marriage – Funeral, depends on when you think your life begins)

    The smell of chicken has taken over the outdoor air; the store owners have poured their floor-washing water all over the streets – It’s nearly shabbat.

  • היום ברמי לוי

    “!מי שנכנס אדר, מרבים במבצעים – היום, ברמי לוי, שווק השקמה”

  • Visibility.

    Are Anglos invisible in Israel? Why? Move to Israel, become invisible Sad, but it’s something to think about.

  • Yellow, weird world.

    Crazy weird weather today. Sandstorms made the air yellow during the day and hail made the buses noisy in the evening. Even Haaretz wrote about it here. And here is my view:

  • Rumors, and not the Lindsay kind.

    Somebody told somebody very close to me that somebody close to her, who happens to work in intellegence in the IDF, that she (the somebody’s somebody in the IDF) is very depressed. Why? She (the somebody in the IDF) couldn’t disclose, but we’d all find out in a few days. The only thing I can…

  • You thought Bush vs. Kerry was hard???

    So this seems to be finally mattering (as opposed to being three months away, Sharon in a coma, and everyone ‘speculating’ from the air)… That said, if you’re like me, you’ll be waiting to the last minute to decide on who you support/vote for. I’ve been collecting some images over the last few months and…

  • What I want to be for Purim.

    “Hey, what are you for Purim?” “God.” “I don’t see it.” “Have a little faith.”
