h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I remember rest and afternoon naps...

Back to work. Nothing to do. Such is life.

I haven't been on at all for a few days. Nothing happening here, other than me and Yogurt rejoicing over the upcoming three-day week. And semirandom internet searches and Youtube. That's pretty much it.

What's this Youtube anyway? I keep hearing about it and have no idea what it is.
3 days week? How come?

Youtube.com - it's a video site that has just about everything, try a few searches and you'll see what I mean.
There's no school tomorow because of Election Day/teacher in-service thingie, and Friday I guess they're counting as Veteran's Day.

Still all quiet over here, though only in the figurative sense because Yogurt is playing guitar in the other room. At least he's getting better.

I wonder what he was like initially.
No work (not much, anyway) so I have time to reply to messages.

How are you?

But now he plays Led Zepplin

I'm going to Israel in February!!!

That would be interesting for you. How long for?

Eight days, from the 19th to the 27th. I can't wait!

Go and join in on the Tu B'Shvat planting. It's great fun, even if you never planted a tree. Some places would give you a certificate for your tree.

Sorry about the time...

Tu B'Shvat is a few weeks before when we'll be there, so we'll probably miss that. A few years ago we did sponser (is that the word?) a few trees, but we missed out on the fun part.

Tomorow my school has a pep rally - wish me luck.

what is a pepe rally and why not just beat people with big sticks when they want you to be all happy and bouncy

Because she's not you.

Erm...yeah.

It actually wasn't as painful as the last one they had. Still pretty bad though.

Well, it's finally cold but it's not snowing. If it's going to be this cold it *has* to snow, otherwise what's the point? We need something that'll make the roads good and slippery, preferably at around 7 AM when the buses need to be out. There's nothing but flurries forecast for the next ten days, maybe next week. *sigh*

It's Hannukah soon. 2 weeks, I think. That ought to cheer you up, surely..?
I love it. My favourite holiday, and this year it ends just as Christmas begins, so first there'll be 8 days of candles, spinning tops, doughnuts and potato cakes (in any random order) and then we'll recover with turkey and cranberry sauce. Maybe a pumpkin pie, too, if I could be a**ed.
How are you?

Yes, Chanukah is good. We have about 15 menorahs, and the table where we light them is in front of a mirror - we really get a blaze going, especially in the later nights.

It finally snowed today! Just a flurry in the morning, but it was still nice. It's reeeaaaaally cold now, if we could only get some substantial precipitation we'd be all set.

I'm really looking forward to the weekend. I've got a lot to do, but at least I can sleep late. How's life over there?

I probably won't be able to get on before Shabbos tomorrow, so - Happy Chanukah!!!

Happy Hannukah to you too!
I'll tell you more when I next get a chance...
