I am back...

...from the most-astonishing adventure in Israel, Egypt and Jordan. I didn't update this journal but often sent tweets and Facebook so you can catch up there, but now that all the frustrations of travel are fading and I'm left with the memories of people I met and things I saw and did, yes. Astonishing.

I have like eighty billion photos to go through, a MUSH to start wizzing at again, and a bunch of comms with probably tired and cranky babysitters who are more than ready to dump them in my lap again.

I've been away so long that the news doesn't even make sense to me anymore. It must be like what happens to people who never watch the news and then tune in one day and are like 'what the ever-living fuck is this?' When I left this country, I was winning at Deadpool and Robert Byrd was alive and now NEITHER OF THOSE THINGS ARE TRUE.

It's a shame that Ariel Sharon didn't cack it while I was in Israel, I could have gone to a state funeral for a massive jerk and also pulled ahead again. /terrible.

Anyway. Back now. Had awesome time. Spent too much money, but my parents don't seem pissed about it in the slightest. LOL, and I worried so much over it.

ALSO I SAW DOCTOR WHO FINALE JUST NOW. AND IT WAS ASTONISHING. I can't find the words for how fucking good the Season Five ender was, I just can't, the same way I know there are people who hate this season with a fiery passion and I just really don't understand that at all.

Welcome back!!! :)

I got your postcard today. :) I'm so glad that the trip was so wonderful!! My brother goes over to that part of the world every chance he gets and he just LOVES it. He was trying to get me to go over, but now I have one more reason why not. ;)

Hi there! Okay, so I wanted to introduce myself before I friended you out of nowhere. I started looking through your journal for West Wing fiction and saw that and I have much in common. And then I saw you went on BR Israel like, a few weeks before I did, and that capped it. So that is why I'm friending you (Even if you are mostly on DW now).

Also, um--where do I find your fic? I wanna read!

ALSO, ALSO -- do you have good fic recs? LONG fic recs? Maybe around Santos and that administration or really, anything. I'm not picky. I miss West Wing SO MUCH.
