My sister's house got broken into last night...

And on top of everything else (TVs, car, jewelry) the burglars also stole candy.

Oh my god you guys, I have a pink mattress. My mom is going to kill me.

It all started because of her. She forbids me to wash my paint brushes and plates in the sink because I make a mess. So I use a big plastic bowl. And guys, it tipped and spilled all over the bed. Why it was there on the first place? I know, I know, I'm a dumbass.

I had to drag the dripping mattress to the yard, since I had no chance of cleaning it in my room. Observe.

The after pic. I have a pink mattress now! Before I hosed it down it was bright red and pink and dripping all over the place. It look like I killed someone. Thank god it was only acrylic.

Also, here's a pic of my mom and me visiting my brother at the hospital. Beware of swine flu!!!1!

When I'll find the energy, I'll try and explain the last few weeks. This month was unbelievable, I can't even begin to describe what I'm feeling.

I guess good news also come in threes because my new niece was borne yesterday. Hurray! :)

Okay. Both of my siblings were misdiagnosed. It is neither cancer nor swine flu. It's amazing, I'm so relived. I can't believe it.

My sister was diagnosed with skin cancer yesterday. Until further tests are taken we don't know how bad it is. I want to bury myself till then.

Today didn't as suck as hard as yesterday, except for one happenstance. I left my register for a couple of minutes for a short break. When I returned I discovered a woman changing her baby's diaper on my register. The smell of poop lingered.

Day of Suckage

2009-07-16T21:41:46Z

I recently started working as a cashier in a general pharmacy in one of the biggest, busiest malls in Israel which for some reason attracts the most foul customers one can get. Every single day in that place is One of Those Days.

Like today. Wherein a woman with her young (4-5ish) kids come to check out at my register. First thing she says to me is "hurry up and finish my things before the chaos starts". They kids are generally misbehaving and don't listen to her at all. We're about to finish when I notice one of the kids is opening and wrecking a chocolate bars carton trying to get to the candy inside. She snaps at the kids, grabs the ruined product, and shoves it back on the shelf.

I inform the lady she'll have to pay for the ruined product. Her response? Yelling "Oh yeah? Why the hell would I do that?! You've got some nerve! It's your fault for not hurrying up like I told you. Anyway it's your responsibility to watch my kids while they're in your store!"

Okay then.

Later that day a customer yelled at me for smiling, since I should after all be serious when I'm working and obviously I'm not taking my job seriously (???)

Afterwards, a customer comes storming back with their check, because to their understanding I charged them 3 times for a 1+1 discount. I explained that the way the computer calculates the discount is to bill both, then negate one

For examples:
"1 Product Name 9.99
1 Product Name 9.99
***1 Product Name -9.99 "

I explained this. With charts. And underlines. And sweat and tears. When they finally gets it, they storm about how stupid the system is and I need to change it right now. Umm, because as a cash register it is well within my job description to program the register. Okay.

Aside from the bad, there was also the plain weird. A kid around 12-13 or so comes by my register and drops his basket on my counter. I greet him with a hello. He growls at me. Literally growls. GRRRRRRR! I would have growled back if not for the glare. o.0

Black PPL Have MASSIVE LIPS

2009-07-13T20:10:33Z

I posted this to wtf_inc a few days ago. At first I LOL'ed, but man, what a schmuck. White boy having a hysterical rant. Observe.

"LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THOSE LIPS. I'm not being comedic!!! I thinks black people are very cool... with their hippy... stuff.

LIPS THE SIZE OF A STEAK!!!"

I'm very disappointed in the Sims 3 so far. But you know what I really love anyway? My new laptop's ability to run it like nothing else. High five!

I remade the video of my weird jumping dog. WATCH IT! It's funny :)

My Dog Likes to Move it Move it

2009-06-06T18:20:43Z

I have two dogs... Technically, my sister has two dogs. One, Shugi, a pit bull who has all the ferocity of a new borne kitten, and Pinuki, a tiny mutt who thinks she's a lion and is a menace to shoes.

All goes well, until Shugi notices things hanging from trees. Then he goes apeshit and gotta gotta gotta gettit!

Sorry for the weird perspective

Shugi, "Before".

Notices shoelaces on a branch...

Jumping

Jumping

Pinuki - Looks are decieving. "Beware of dog" sign? FOR HER!

Starting work tomorrow. Good night!

A small video I took yesterday from the Blue Man Group Concert.

I'm Blue Bada Dee Da

2009-06-06T11:04:40Z

Yesterday I went to see the Blue Man Group who are currently touring in Israel. Damn, why didn't anyone warn me that it will be so awesome?

ETA

I only take a few pictures if any at shows because I'd rather enjoy the expirience then spend my time messing about with my crap camera. Here are the ones I took last night.

He noticed me filming and came right at me to pose for the camera, but as you can see I messed up the shot :(

אני קיימת!!!

I went out with my best friend today to get art supplies for a project of his, and we even sat down at a coffee place where incidentally my cousin was working that day and she kept calling us by the check in microphone to sneak us free brownies. It may seem silly, but I'm really happy because him and I haven't done anything together lately and it was really nice to just sit and chat.

Besides that, Two good things happened to me today:

1 - I signed up for the Psychometry exam (think SAT), although the course only starts in a few months. Meanwhile, I got a job as a cash register in a pharmacy. Yay (low) income.

2 - I bought six new books for the price of two. Yay literacy.

Also, firefox's build in spell checker doesn't recognize the word "yay". Or "she" for that matter.

Dreaming of Cutbacks

2009-06-02T10:32:26Z

Last time I was dreaming of visiting an open market in some unmentioned europian country, and in the dream I realized that I couldn't buy anything because I only had Israeli currency (shekels). I went to find a place where I could change my money into €s. In dream sense, I only needed 20 euros to buy the trinket I was examining.

Much to my surprised, I learned that due to the recession, the shekel value dropped so low that 20€ were now worth over a million shekels and then, elated, remembered the 20€ I had back home in my sock drawer. Therefore I was rich! And in my dreaming world it all made sense!

Then I woke up and was still poor.

Damn recession.

Three years ago I posted this vid to youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrQ0W3qLKeA) the music originally was Unforgiven by Metallica. The original audio was removed due to a copy right claim on the song but I changed the music and kept the vid for sentimental reasons.

So I was very surprised to find my vid, in it's original form, uploaded here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ue2cHSQnmM&feature=related). The audio is different but the video itself is identical, they even kept the "vid made by natgel" credit in the end.

I've left a comment and sent a pm to the maker, my pm was ignored and my comments deleted. I commented again but I don't have high hopes.

This is actually my first music video and is in fact very important to me.
Can you guys help me take down this video? If more people comment on it maybe he or she will take it off. I tried not to make a big deal of it, but it's really really annoying.
