I'm off to Jerusalem on monday. We're going to several different places, but Jerusalem is the most interesting to me. I've been in Israel for five months without ever having been there, so I'm glad I've finally got the chance. July is finally coming up, and I'll get to move out of the subhuman living conditions I have now. I've missed having my own appartment....

I have some strange Israeli version of strep throat. I didn't go to work today, and I'm just sitting around listening to Toots and the Maytals. I did have a good weekend though. I hung out with BurtWard67 and his new roommate a lot of the time. The girl I've been seeing came to visit, although she has now gone back to Brazil, and I'll...

I have experienced socialized medicine. As an American, this is quite a thing. I cut the living hell out of my finger today at work, and needed stiches. Even though I lost a good deal of blood, it was still not such a bad time. I didn't wait too long, and everybody was very nice. Israeli nurses are better looking than any I've ever seen...

I finally got some time away. It has done wonders for my mental health. I was supposed to go to Eilat with a friend of mine today, but she fell ill, so I went alone. It was great. I drank scotch and read a good book by my damn self. Also, it was somebody's birthday today at the bar where I was drinking, so I...

I really need more work on my Hebrew. I really can't speak it at all. I think I'm going to be spending a lot more time with my family. I can practice my Hebrew, and I can get away from all of the people I live with. My family's house is the one place where they won't follow me. I just found out that one...

I have made a very important travel discovery: Don't spend four days in a very tiny room with people who you are already a bit sick of. I ended up devoting a good deal of my time in Tel Aviv to telling these people just how much I hate them, which turns out to be quite a bit. Well, I guess it feels good to...

I know I end up saying this a lot, but I'm pretty damn sick of the other Americans on the kibbutz. I'm pretty sick of the nonamericans as well, but it the Americans who were pissing me off today. I've got a week untill I get a chance to get off the kibbutz for an extended period of time. I will savor every moment of...

Purim party this Friday. I intend to go dressed as a pirate, a drunken pirate. There will be free beer, so the second part of the costume is going to be pretty easy. I don't know why, but I'm actually looking forward to this. Oh yeah, I know why, its because there isn't anything else to do here. Well, I'm off to go get drunk...

Tel Aviv was quite a weekend. I got good and drunk with Thana, and then good and drunk with a couple of brazillians who spoke no english. I saw some interesting stuff, but the most important part was that I got out of the kibbutz for a while. I would like to add that anybody planning a trip to Tel Aviv should keep in...

Tel Aviv this weekend. This time I won't be bringing any stupid people, so It'll actually be a good time.

Good lord. I just got back from drinking with my friends from the kibbutz. I am never drinking with those people again. They have no idea how to behave in a bar. I have no desire to be part of the group of asshole tourists. It was unreal.
I guess that from now on I'll have to go by myself when I want a glass...
