Left the office a bit before 16:00 yesterday and caught the 16:00 bus. Unfortunately, it broke down a few minutes after we got into Holon, so everybody got off and wondered what to do. It took me just a minute to make up my mind to go see my grandparents, who live but 5 minute walk from where we've stopped.

I called my grandma and she said I was welcome, and then I called my mom and she told me all about her day before I could slip in that I was going to visit her parents. We said she'd come and get me in two hours time and we would go shopping (we had absolutely nothing in the house). When I got to my grandparents' house they were waiting for me, and my grandma immediately asked what I wanted to eat, and she went and made my some toast with cheese, and a cup of a very welcome coffee. They both sat with me while I ate and we talked about my trip and about the museums I've been in, and my grandpa got a few art books out of the shelf and showed me a few things by Gogen and Chagall (an artist I had close to no recognition of, and whom I liked very much), and we continued on with a discussion on the Darfur refugees, by that time my mom arrived and we left. My mom said they were really reluctant to let me go. I really should go there more often.

My mom and I went to Mega and ended up buying a lot more that we intended, but my mom insisted to take the things ourselves without a delivery, so we all pulled and carried everything from the car (my dad came to help) and cursed our narrow stairway. We got everything in in something like three rounds. We were pretty tired after that.

I went to see "Kyle XY" (it was only the second episode last night) and laughed my head off when Kyle tried to eat everything in the fridge, including canned whipped-cream, an egg (which he unceremoniously spat from his mouth) and a banana - without peeling it. He spat that out too. It was quite funny and the rest of the episode was nice as well, and it gave me some mind-rest, which was needed.

I have a new secretary with me today, since Racheli is on a holiday, but she's here for only two days, so I haven't much to do with her - just the basics, and looking after her is not something I need right now. I think I would have preferred to be left alone these two days (it's not like I haven't done it before, and if she doesn't know what to do she's of no use to me).
