slept in a bit...got in to work about 8:30.
had a small victory at work today. it's a bit difficult to explain, but let me just say this. i own my computer...like, i OWN my computer.
the other kids are going to a beach today to hang out and play. i'm not going to be able to, i have ruhi 5 from 2-8 today. intense, i know....but we do what we have to. i'll join them later tonight for games and stuff.
here are some photos for your enjoyment. unfortunately, i don't have time for any long explanations. :D
(this was taken at the dinner for khat's parents. mel was there, but had to leave early. the eghdamians are the trio in the middle starting with khanoom in the middle row, three people from the left, then comes mr. eghdamian, and khat)
(the wedding singers: me, zoha, kathi, and nathan)
(my best friend khat and i - this picture was taken at the wedding for Enas and Eli)
(the quintessential kiwi ezra and i - also taken at the wedding)
Saturday
the initial plan for this day was that we would head out early in the morning to go to Acre because brian hadn't been yet. unfortunately, i had completely forgotten about a meeting that i had that morning that i had asked be postponed a number of times since brian had been there - and so i felt like i couldn't ask them to delay it again. so brian slept in and rested, and i went off to my meeting. because we would be going later in the day, we couldn't be joined by the girls who had to go to a bridal shower that afternoon for gigi.
and so once i got back from my meeting, brian and i went down to ezra's place to use the internet and laugh, and we waited until khat was going to get done with a class that morning before asking her if she wanted to come along with us....aaaand, she did. so around 2ish i think, we set out for a hot day at akko. because i had only been there a couple of times i didn't exactly know where to get off, so i guessed. i missed our stop off, and so we had to walk a bit to get to the prison city. it was really nice though, walking along the shore. we stopped to eat at a restaurant for a bit, and then went into the city. we took a bunch of pictures, and hopefully i'll be able to get them from brian soon to post.
after that we went to Bahji around 5:30 where we were going to be met by amelia and roya (lucia had some how fallen ill and wasn't going to be able to come). Bahji was as beautiful as ever, and i will always have wonderful memories of that Place. all in all, we did a fair amount of walking that day. khat's legs were sore, my feet hurt from wearing brian's sandals all day, and brian was just pink. so we got back to haifa around 9ish i think and went to 14 sheks to get some food and then went home and crashed.
my feet still are sore, and brian blended in with the pink sheets quite nicely when i checked on him this morning. he'll join me later in the day here at the office. he leaves tonight (big frown). i do wish he could have stayed like a month. maybe next summer eh? let's think about it.
Today
got into work early...waiting for people to show up...and beginning to draw out my schedule of tasks for the day. it's a beautiful morning. ciao!
