Birthdays
I'm in the middle of two birthdays I celebrate. On the 29th of April I celebrated a two-year birthday for Milton. He's very happy the summer is coming, because the sun and the air is doing him nothing but good.
In two days' time I'll be celebrating my own birthday in a party with most of my friends and a few parts of my family.
I usually have a lot of excitement for my birthday, and I did have it this year, but it withered a bit. I have a lot of work for Friday - including cleaning and organizing the roof and cooking heavily. My mom went shopping today for me so I'll have all I need to start my cooking. Most of it will be done tomorrow and on Friday, but I'll do what I can so I won't be stuck with it at the last moment. Plus, my mom won't be home on Friday night to help me as she and my dad are invited to friends of theirs.
My dad totally shocked me yesterday. We were sitting in the kitchen and eating dinner, and he started talking about the Winograd report, and I really wasn't in the mood to listen to him and my mom argue about politics (I was in a foul mood, but that's a different story), so I said (and that's a quote): "No, no, no, no" and he looked at me and said "Tami, Shut up (תסתמי את הפה). I was totally shocked, and so were my mom and sister. My mom started arguing with my dad about what he said, so he said I was very rude to try and shut him up and went to do the dishes. I hadn't spoken to him since, even though he said "Good morning" when I woke up today.
Oh, annoyance - the new Mugglecast won't download. Fuck it.
On the bright side, the new make up brush I bought is absolutely wonderful, so my eye shadow sticks all day long, and it's fun.
My lips are dry, better go put on some lip-balm.
*~*
Everybody left, and I have no work. I brought a book with me but I'm in no mood to read. Will put on some music, though. Oh, wait, the mail...
*~*
The mail is down at the gate, the personal expenses recipts are done. It has passed some time for me, these little things. It's now 17:15, so I'm thirty minutes away from leaving.
I really am dying to go see a movie, but I don't think I'll get a chance for that this week.
