i miss capcap!!!

This morning was a lil crazy, and I wound up taking a taxi to work (due to lack of time, not because I have a huge headache and it felt like it was 90-something degrees out)....... I'm standing there, waiting, and a taxi going the other direction looks at me and asks if I need one, and he motions that he'll turn around. Meanwhile, two more taxis go by in my direction, but being the nice lil texan i am, i just let them go and wait for the dude who turned around just for me. Of course he has absolutely NO idea where Ben Maimon Street is (where I work like, 10 minutes away)... and speaks in Hebrew 1,000 km / millisecond (hey look at me, all metric now!)... not that i'd be able to understand him if he spoke slowly, though... and he also spoke the least amount of English of any cab driver i've encountered in my time here. why does this kinda stuff happen to me like, evvery day? taxi drivers have no idea where i wanna go about 50% of the time, and generally i actually know where i wanna go and can tell them (i learned driving directions in ulpan.. WOOO) - but sometimes they go a completely different way than the route i know, so it's difficult to tell them smoleh o yamina when you have no idea what street you're on and the surrounding streets are one ways....... plus you're on a meter and they're driving around aimlessly, stopping to ask people where the destination is, and they don't know, either, and you're like OMG why didn't i just walk. anyway, i got there fine today.

in other news, somehow it got super nice outside. it's gorgeous. but i'm at the computer because i have about eight tasks to accomplish before friday. ready?
design/compile a 100-page press kit (this is almost finished, actually, baruch ha'shem)
create three new homepage images for the website
go through our website content / update it
compile the roi november newsletter
figure out / conduct this featured member profile bit
update my job description
outline my performance goals, learning goals and professional development goals for the next 3 months
start thinking about a gift from roi to birthright/others
shit man, eight was a good guess.
i also have to pack, perhaps get my work permit, find some fun presents to take back and probably some other stuff like, have fun or something!

anyways, im gonna get back to work and drink my limonana blee nana (personally i think mint in lemonade is disgusting). would esponda for LML be a good trade? hypothetically speaking?

i need a hypershot!!! do other people quote stuff from 8th grade or just me? hmmmmmm
