The poquitos (as we were told the locals called them) live on the tears of seagulls. Which is kind of poetic, but also ick.
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

I am seeing that Bibi lost the election. anyone else? I have been off world news for a bit. Is this good? bad? pretty much the same?

Oh I hope he loses. He's arguably as big an impediment to Mideast Peace as Hamas. (Note that I wouldn't argue it very hard, because Hamas is like having the bastard children of the Mafia and MS-13 running your country.)

I thought mac and I were making progress/reaching a truce, but I guess I was wrong. He was up and out of the house before 7 this morning (school does not start until 8:40) - I have no idea with whom or doing what. He did not respond to my texts all day and he has not been home yet.

BBC says no clear winner, so I guess the thing I saw was not a trustworthy source.

I'm so sorry about mac, msbelle.
It looks like four more years of Netanyahu. They should be finishing counting the absentee ballots in a few hours (in about four hours), and then we'll know for sure what the results are. I've updated my current hopes to 1. the other Arab minority party reaching the threshold, and 2. for a good minister of health and a good minister of environmental issues. The rest will remain the about the same.
For those who are looking for some kind of hope/silver lining: the trial on the criminal charges against Netanyahu should begin in July, if he will not be able to postpone/erase it.

Sorry about the layoff, Dana (incoming to yr fb box). And that mac is being a jerk hole, msbelle. And about Netanyahu. Sending love all around.
I need some serious focus-ma for the next couple of hours so I can get this gd document done. My therapist thinks I should look into going on low dose ritalin but it's hard to think that any problems I have getting shit done aren't just due to my laziness and willingness to be distracted.

I'm sorry about the layoff, Dana. I hope you find something without 7 am meetings soon.
Much focus~ma, lisah.
I'm not going to read about the eye bees. Nope. Don't wanna; can't make me.

Sorry to hear about the layoff, Dana.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I hope Dana is sleeping in this morning.
