On Top of Things

lea_hazelI've got this weird feeling of teetering and being totally on top of everything, at the same time.
Yom Kippur went well. In the spirit of the holiday, the mother and I did a massive cleanse of clothes that I haven't worn in years, and now there's a big plastic bag full of great clothes (I really flatter my taste, I'm impressed with myself), which I hope will go to someone who can get good use of them. Other than that, we watched four movies, practically an Israeli tradition for those who don't really observe. My family has bizarre Jewish traditions.
Did you know Yom Kippur is totally trending on Twitter? It's in the scroll bar and everything. Even though it's been over for 18 hours and, um, there are only like 15 million of us or something? Strike that, I just wiki'd and it's more like 13 million.
Last week I finished reading a sci-fi romance that I got on a whim, back around Passover. Although I basically enjoyed it, I'm becoming increasingly convinced that romance novel plots end where I want them to begin. Almost the last line of the book was where I was thinking the story really gets started. Somehow, I don't think there are very many books based on the first few years of a relationship, in general, let alone specifically between a human and an alien. Then again, it had a psychic lesbian orgy, so it's not a total loss.
My new place is getting a fridge today. I'm optimistic.
Next week: ICON.
