Today is my dad's birthday.i watched two more movies: Lucas and Unexpected Life. Lucas was kinda disappointing since i wanted him to have a relationship with the geeky girl in the band. Today my management found a mistake i made and this will be on their next report about me. We got the van fixed today. For $22 some scratches made by Z were buffed out. Now the ignition keyhole does not work well. We owe something like $750 for religious school dues and $450 for soccer dues. i emailed my parents today and told them our new van came from my FIL. He paid around 16K we financed the rest and got a very generous trade in on our 1996 Nissan Quest minivan. i have been following the news in the gaza strip. Israel has killed some terrorists today. The terrorists have sent off rockets from gaza today. All the settlements were evacuated safely. The Israelis are a classy group and we expected nothing less. My parents are considering joining Reformed Temple Rodef Shalom in Northern Virginia. Last night i rode my bicycle to Lowe's to buy a light bulb. The trip took about an hour. Saved gas though. i didn't fast on the Tisha B'av טי או We were en-route on our vacation. We had guests over for bagels too. DP was one of them. He was mad when he missed the last fast. This time since i wasn't fasting either it didn't come up in conversation. i finished chapter 12 of my VB book. Later on the trip the kids got hungry and didn't realize the bagels were lunch. So i told them we really were supposed to be fasting any way and stop complaining your hungry. For dinner that night we went to a buffet called the golden coral. It was disgusting and Z made a big mess. He was running down the halls with spaghetti falling off his plate. The other movie had another actor i really don't like. From the TV show seventh heaven the reverend was in this movie. i found myself really grossed out about his acting ability in both the show and in this movie. i discovered i have another copy of Drums of the Deep South on DVD. This one i will give to my parents. i went to the post office yesterday and paid the $1.71 postage due on the package and they gave me the $1.42 credit so it went back to NJ. It was Franklin Planner pages we sold on ebay. We sold some vagabound comic book we when came back.
