For those who prefer reading to listening, the first 25 sonnets have been compiled into a book that is available now on Amazon and the Google Play store.

teased, soaked, milked, occupied

it was a stunning morning. the weather was fantastic. i hummed my way to the base.

then the clouds came and it began to rain. i had a haircut this morning, i supposed that was a good thing.

around lunchtime something unpleasant happened to our systems. instead of going to a goodbye ceremony-thing for one of the guys in our team, i stayed behind to fix the problem. when i finally left, it was POURING with rain. and i arrived completely drenched.

i was starving - and there was plenty of pizza. not good pizza, mind. i ate a lot. i completely forgot that i'm lactose intolerant. that happens sometimes.

the discipline officer called me up to participate in the ceremony for the day of remembrance - my commanders refused to let me go! that's a first :D

i spent the afternoon feeling like crap. i kept passing out during the multitude of lectures we received. too - much - hebrew. i hate having to listen to long, irrelevant speeches anyway.

i went straight to work. i discovered a lot today, but the api that i'm using isn't too helpful, and i spent most of my time staring at the screen, or testing the software, to see if i could come up with any meaningful solutions. it looks like i've managed something, but i'll only find out tomorrow.

i met a south african working upstairs, and thinking it would be cute, greeted her with "aangename kennis". turns out she's afrikaans, and mine didn't last too long :$

oh, and they closed off access to the smoker's corner, which kinda sucked.

i've just arrived home, i'm waiting for lucky to get here before i shower (i don't want to keep her waiting outside). in the morning i have to leave the landlords a key to my apartment, they want to come and do some drilling.

great.
