This morning I went for a walk on the beach, then bought a freshly-made carrot and pomegranate juice at Ben Gurion and Dizengoff. This is the best thing about autumn in Israel: fresh pomegranate juice. The worst thing is that my summer tan is fading - which is, of course, tragic - and also the sinking knowledge that in a couple of months my apartment will be one big refrigerator. Time to dryclean the sweaters and air out the down quilt. Or perhaps this is a little premature, given that today's temp is 28 Celsius.

I love Harry's new design.

Which reminds me once again that I am a techno-ignoramous. I cannot figure out how to:
  • Upload photos from my digital camera to my computer;
  • Post the blogroll I created (via blogrolling) to my blog template;
  • Connect MS Outlook to the email account provided by my ISP
  • Bring back the sound, which disappeared when my friend Ilan loaded my creaky old PC with Windows 2000;
  • See who's visiting my blog (traffic).


What's up with all the new and talented writers appearing all over the blogosphere? At this rate I'll be spending half my life reading them! It seems that a common theme among young, single female bloggers is the dearth of men and/or crazy ex-boyfriends. Last night I kept myself up giggling over my own list of ex-lore. Most of it seemed tragic at the time, of course, but now it's just awfully good story. You simply cannot make this stuff up. I think I'll write about the top 5 stories in my next post... Today I received an invitation to the wedding of my friends Helena and Manu (fifth photo down, with my sister Adina), which will take place in Udaipur (India) at the end of January. I must figure out a way to foot the bill for this trip; English girl marries Indian guy in traditional Rajasthani ceremony - what an experience that'll be! And besides, I miss India. Are there any periodical editors out there who'd like to commission a bunch of articles by yours truly on India? I can write about all sorts of cool and interesting people, places and things, and I'll even hire someone to show me how to use my digital camera to send photos. Email me for a list of possible subjects...
