weeds is simply awesome. great fun.
bottom line for the night - the new guy is really frustrating, mainly because he just doesn't listen, he's inefficient (to be fair, that comes with experience), and he's none-too-good with the politeness thing (to be fair, he's israeli AND he lacks experience). i'm sure he'll be fine, but as a perfectionist it's always hard to deal with these things.
there's a girl who works with us who gets on my nerves a bit - that she's a bit of an oddball is fine, but she seems a bit disconnected and a lot of her behaviour clashes with my idea of decent. there's not a lot to be done about that, but it does get aggravating sometimes.
the new guy gave me a ride to my area, and i walked home, started a load of washing and crashed (around 5.30am). i was then up, shaved, dressed, with laundry on the line and getting onto the bus at 7.10am. total zombification.
i got to the base *just* in time, had breakfast with my SC - where we continued discussing yesterday's abominable news - and then began kitchen duty. which went on until roughly 3pm, by which stage i was completely wasted and my world was spinning.
i bussed home, watched some more fights and most of american beauty - a movie that made me feel really good about myself, as usual - had a super shower and supper, and am now going to bed, watching the princess bride for the first time.
i'm sure there's plenty i haven't covered, but whatever. *bombs away*
Hey Just wondering what the general israeli response to 'Paradise Now' is and if you have seen it what yours was. I thouhgt it was a really good movie and my mother (who I expected to rant about how baised it was and blah blah damn arabs and all) really enjoyed it too.
ReplyDeleteoh and whats happening with you guys and the fangs? my mom is arriving in IL on the 15th and leaving begginign march so if you want to give her toof molds and money for it anytime then is fine and she said she will be happy to carry it down.
i'd respond to what you asked about "paradise now", only i've never heard of it. failing that, one mustn't forget that as a soldier, i know diddly about what goes on in this country that's not directly related to the army. and very little about what is!
