I had a hard day at work, but loved leaving it behind to go home. It's such a great feeling - "The workday is over, I'm done". So cool.
Also, had a really nice skype conversation with my parents yesterday. I realized I miss them. I also skyped with a friend from the states, who I miss very much.
Today on the bus, I had the same time of cozy "It's winter and I'm on a bus" feeling I get in NY. This made me happy, because it means Jerusalem is becoming my home. Getting on the bus, I was annoyed at the lack of organized line, but five minutes later, I was happily thinking about my love for Israel, and I realized - I really am in love with the country! Just as with a person, I see the flaws, brush them off, and five minutes later am enamored again, full of that delicious feeling that comes just from being in their presence.
I also figured out that if I drink coffee at a certain shop, I can see the bus coming and run to the stop in time to get it, which should make future bus-waits nicer.
Ok, I have to go babysit. I feel like I had these deep profound thoughts about life on the bus, and now that I go to write them down with a ten minute time limit, those thoughts are lying in their caccoons. I hope at a later point they can become butterflies.
