tanarillNo, really. There's a wedding there. I will be back on Tuesday. Although you probably will not notice, seeing as I shall take Equal with me.
In other news, the Macabe Games are over. They did some kind of thing where we got to take over the State Fairground (we meaning the Jews of Detriot) and kind of celebrate the fact that Israel is now sixty years old. Despite the fact that it is a small country surrounded by much larger countries which are dedicated to its eventual and total destruction. There was shwarma, which is a Thing that you can't often get outside of Israel, but they did it with chikkin. Everyone knows you're supposed to do shwarma with lamb. And falafel. Mmmmm.
Also, there were bees. The dude said, quote, "I don't think I've ever seen anyone that exited about bees."
To which I said, "I want bees, but for some reason my brother seems to think having fifty thousand stinging insects for a pet is a bad idea."
*Ahem.*
In other news, I had Dreams last night. Yay!
Dream the first was about Aang. The avatar, yes, and how there were a finite number of universes in which Aang existed. Also, there was this dude who was all: we shall keel them all, and it was odd because the Gaang kept switching who bent what. Also, there was grass-sledding and movie-watching and bookstore-disturbing.
Dream the second was also about Aang, but indirectly. Apparently random dimension travelers were trying to invade because, having totally trashed their world, they needed a new one to trash. One of them, however, a kind of rebel who was all "Stop that now! This is not your world!" turned against them and went and helped the Avatar-verse to beat back the invaders. The coolio bit was that it was a kind of "six years later" thing, so Aang was adult, and Katara was Katara, and oddly enough Sokka (and I suppose Suki, although I didn't see her) had moved to the fire nation because that was the one with all the engineers and cool inventions. Zuko had a son. Cutest kid imaginable, but still. Zuko = daddy?
Dream the third was mostly forgettable. I know I had it. I just don't remember much, aside from the Joker failing miserably to escape prison and Batman being, for once, the one to get brainwashed. I mean, why do the villains always try to mind-control Superman to kill Batman? If they did it the other way around, Batman would just put a Kryptonite bullet through Superman's brain and then go lock himself in a cave to emo afterward. And, for some reason, green balloons that slingshotted you places. I don't get that. Oh, and gloves, so there would be no fingerprints. But, yeah, no internal coherency or logic to that dream. And then woke up.
So, this is the Plan. Go to Pittsburgh and spent the weekend with Adam (whose Bar Mitzvah happened only recently) and cute three-year-old second cousin Noah, go to New Jersey for a wedding put on by some Very Rich Relatives, come back. Probably not y way of Canadia.
There are also some plotbunnies poking around my head, but not very clear or strident ones. Le siiiiiigh.
