A lazy Yom Shishi for me, I skyped with my friend from home for quite a while, and then when my computer started to die so I had to go. Most everybody was gone, so I opened a box of Girl Scout cookies and my book and read for a while. After I got bored of that, I read through every single text since kibbutz; crazy crazy stuff. I slept for over twelve hours and then woke up to a new day. A clean, refreshing shower and then I made the most disgusting sandwich. During our desert tiyul, I made sandwiches that had mustard and cucumber in them, but it turns out what is appealing to you when you're in the middle of the desert with no other options is not appealing once you're in civilization. Josh and I then went out to Ben Yehuda and picked up some things. I'm still looking for my ring, though. We got some presents for Jake, but I won't say what they are here yet because of the extremely slim chance he reads this before we give them to him.
On the way back, I stopped by the mobile blood bank to ask if I could give blood, the paramedic said, "Yes, but not today, we're closing." Not, 'no, we're closing,' but, 'yes, but not now.' I don't think they're out there on Shabbat, but I'll try again next week.
Now we're back at the flat, but we;re getting ready to go out to the park for Ben's birthday. Abby's got some things planned as well as food and drinks ready. After, some of us are going to do a Kotel Dinner. I haven't gone yet, and I'm really excited. We'll got to the Kotel and this man organizes people like us to go to dinner with an Orthodox family. Everybody who has gone have had mixed results, form really good eye-opening conversations to the most awkward nights of their lives. I think it's an experience no matter what, and so I'm going to try to go tonight. Tomorrow, Emily and Becca and I are planning on going to a science museum here, and then Emily and I are going to have a chilled-out relaxed night.
To compensate for the dry, monotony of this post, here are some pictures from recent adventures:
