Oh! There are chances my sis would be home tomorrow for 48 hours!

Buffistas~ma for this would be very, greatly appreciated. I'm not sure when was the last time Little Fiend had rest, or even grabbed a shower.

And an update: IDF put cannons outside of the Strip, first time in 12 months. Egypt shot dead a person from the Strip, trying to escape.

I can't believe my country has so much to do with the hell over there.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Oh, Nilly and Shir, our thoughts are with you and everyone there. I hope reason and peace can prevail.

{{hugs you all}}

I'm about familied out, here. My brother's been staying with me for a week and it's been pretty constant family time since last Saturday, other than the day after Christmas, which I spent in bed. I love my family but I'm so used to my alone-time it's kind of hard to deal with the constant presence of people.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Update: Egyptian officer was shot dead while fighting Palestinians trying to breach through the crossing.

Now I'm thinking: do you guys need a map for all of those updates? I'm name dropping a lot of places.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

More updates:

First, The Gaza-Sderot blog is back in action.

Second, in here, the Post is refusing to make it to the Surround Gaza zone. (4.5km from the Strip's border.) The doctors of the night medical centre - also. Public transportation is failing. Phone lines damaged by rockets had not been fixed.

Shir and Nilly- I cannot imagine how you feel. Thank you for the updates and many good thoughts to you, your families, and everyone caught up in the conflict.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Not really new news, but still updating: more air attacks over Gaza. More rocket launches from the Strip. Wounded on both sides.
