A friend unexpectedly arrived to the university. I hadn't seen her in forever. So we both ran out and had a really long really late really yummy lunch together and now I'm spoiling myself with actually catching up here. What a nice day this is turning out to be.

You pretty much need english, huh? Or do they translate it? I have no idea.

Here it's totally in English. It gets to the point where the only Hebrew words in the sentence are those connecting between all the English words that compose most of it. And some of the swearing that accompanies debugging is done in English as well (um, on top of Arabic. Hardly any of the Hebrew swearing is actually done in Hebrew).

msbelle, take care.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Zillow appears to be unaware of my neighborhood

Mine neither. "There are no homes at [my address]." Which could just be because it's an apartment building, but even when I put in the whole street (which does have a few single-family homes), it couldn't find any. Woe is me!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a post. It was about the tradition of having hubs to international areas. Blackberry ate it. Miami is one from the US to the Caribbean and S America, as Toronto functions for Canada. They're getting more diverse now, though.

Pain management kicked my ass. I may take a sick day. Who likes to go into the office after crying? Not me, for sure.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I was reading a board on some of the fallout over the Muhammed cartoons and throughout the multi-lingual flamewar in the comments were plenty of English profanities.

That's because fuck is the best curse word evah.

Also, according to Zillow we could afford my in-laws' house, easy. Too bad we don't want to live in Cleveland (also they are actually living in it, which would be a problem).

Now I'm imagining the new advertising campaing once they work out all the patent issues... Blackberry - EAT IT!

Was it 24 this week that had a prominent Blackberry placement?

ita, take the sick day.

I am obsessed with Zillow now, thanks, flea.

Specifically about comparing our unit with the other one in the house.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

This week and last week.

And Arabic has such juicy swear-words, too. Oh, well.

ita, take care.

Where was the placement? I missed it.

I feel weird about the sick day, but I feel weird in general. Endorphin letdown or summat from the injections and TREMENDOUS FUCKING PAIN maybe.

Oh, look. flea was right.
