I return to the world of anal-retentive America, home of ideological idiot-arians, land of the expensive and fearful. Ah! It’s good to be home!

Actually, I’m surprised to see that nothing of consequence happened over the last fortnight: we continued to erode our standings in the world; the war hasn’t miraculously ended; people are still beating the dead horses named Downing Street, Bad War and Impeach Bush; and Judge Roberts is still in the news cycle (yawn).

At this point I cannot begin to relate my two weeks in Israel or how my perspective has changed. I already know I’m not the same wolf I used to be; how this will manifest will likely surprise us all. For now, I’m happily jetlagged, both glad and sad to be home, and covered in cat hair (being pestered by our pets whom are too relieved we’ve returned to remember to be upset we left).

As promised, I’ve kept a journal (paper, no less!) of our adventures and, after embellishments and editing, will add this to the Tannish Page. Hundreds of photos were taken, too many for my meager web storage capacity; some of them will be posted as well. For now, I prepare for work in the AM and a resumption of life-as-we-know-it, such as it is.
