Shining Shimmering Splendor

I think I'm ready to go home to the States (T-3 days), then I check my email and read a story like this in the NY Times. And I think 'Huh? What country or planet are these people from?' (May have to sign-in for the link- so it's for pretentious readers only.) I forget sometimes that the Times don't actually talk about real people. Oh, and Israel? Lebanon? Lieberman? What? The only news heavily discussed here is the ever-lowering price of watermelons. Really, these may be the cheapest watermelons anywhere in the world. It's too bad that I chose watermelons as my least favorite fruit. I have to disappoint people by turning down their watermelon slices, chunks, and halves at least four times a day.

In other news: I am so done with squatters. And countries with weak flush systems (that means you too, UK). Just 3 more days.

I resent that i toilets flush as much as they need to and no more... being the ecofriendly country that we are!
