ION, in an hour and a half I'm about to interview Mark Lanegan for an Israeli music blog. Since it's been quiet in my area for a few hours, I'm starting to get very nervous about it. Hoping I'll catch him in a good mood.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Dark humor is not a bad thing, as long as those around you are in the same mood. And let's just say the shelters are chilly, that's what the shivers are for. Yeah. Chilly. That must be it.
Good luck with the interview!!

All done with the interview. He didn't eat me alive!
{{Shir}} I know you don't 'need' them, but always a good thing. I hope some sanity happens soon. Yay on not getting eaten alive!
{{Stephanie}} They are really fast at that age! Fortunately parks and zoos are very practiced at finding them quick. It happens a lot!
I've been working most of the weekend, but think I need to go swimming or something that is not sitting at the computer.
Shir, dark humor is a pretty common thing in those types of situations. Praying for peace, and for the inspiration to play silly songs that aren't about death.
Laura! Take a brain and body break! You'll work better after.
Lazy morning. About to get up and fix French toast (with baguette!) and then get some onerous tasks done before the game.
All done with the interview. He didn't eat me alive!This is the 2nd rock star interview that I am aware of, are you turning into an "Almost Famous" movie, Israeli style?
You know that whole "going to the gym" thing? Yeah, I am totally sore today. I see a hot bath in my future.
Continuing hugs for Shir and Nilly. (I know Nilly is safe,but she must be worried about a bunch of people she knows.) Also for "Melody Pond", who I don't know (at least by that name) but ran into on Twitter.
A long hot soak in a very hot bath heavily laced with epsom salts is one of the most wonderful options in modern life.
And Shir, dark humor away! Sounds like a very good coping mechanism for a truly awful situation.
are you turning into an "Almost Famous" movie, Israeli style?
I never seen "Almost Famous".
Also for "Melody Pond", who I don't know
Oh, thank you! I'll let her know. Melody is my ex-roomate and a friend.
Now, an update that will make you happy: guess who has two thumbs and isn't in the range of rockets from Gaza for the next 55+ hours? This girl, who can sleep with whatever pajamas she'd like tonight, because there's no danger she'll have to run out (and frankly, I have no idea where the shelter is. Not in target from Gaza! [I'm in target from Lebanon and Syria, though, and I pray my government isn't stupid enough to open another front]).
Now, just to remind myself that the random sounds I hear on the street are not the start of a siren by any mean. It happens about 15 times per day.
Sadly, however, many of my friends are still in the targeted zones. Many houses and buildings in Tel Aviv area don't have proper shelters, and I have several friends who are with PTSD due to the sirens and rockets. It's bad to see them in that state, and I keep reminding myself we're the luckier and more privileged side; We have sirens.
