Tomorrow at sundown starts פסח (or Passover for you gentiles). For the twentieth year in a row, I will be the youngest male present, and for the twentieth year in a row that means that I have to ask the Four Questions. So tired of it. Also, this holiday means that we have to throw away all our leavened bread products (which means just about everything) and I can't eat anything with yeast in it until next Sunday. #jewworldproblems
Saturday I got what sounded like 2 wrong numbers. This morning I missed an email. This evening I got all of them and found out my Dad, who is in Hong Kong auditing companies for the last 5 days, was admitted into a health facility there, needs to be moved to a hospital, and they found a clot in his leg, he has flu symptoms, and his feet and hands are too swollen to walk or (for example) drive.
At least I didn't get a voicemail telling me he had a heart attack, but still...
"Little pig, little pig, let me in, let me in. You look tasty and smell like bacon." *LICKLICKLICK*
I also just had a seder (the Passover thing Kiyotan was talking about) where, at the age of 27, I was the youngest person present. I was the designated child as well.

Were you the wicked son?
Some may say we've lost our way, but I believe we've not gone far enough.
I remember doing that. One year, we left the wine on the table, and I left the door open... I got up in the morning and the wine was gone, the glass was washed and in the dish rack. I totally thought Elijah had shown up, had his drink, and even washed the cup afterwards. I started telling my mom how amazingly nice of a guest he was, and she decided to inform me she couldn't sleep, so at 430 in the morning, she did the dishes and washed it. I was so disappoint.
Side note: ASKFHSLJHEBS WAI can't my freaking ex roommate pay the darn phone bill? I don't want my phone turned off I need it for work plzkthx.... And why is he playing his metal so loud I can hear it in a completely different apartment at 210 in the morning?! Grrrrrr
No. My mom did that part. I just did the four questions, opened the door for Elijah, and held the afikomen hostage.
Sounds like some sort of Pokemon who is always idling.

Ratings. I hate having my life controlled by 4 months out of the year. Especially when they go badly.

>mfw Jewish holiday sounds like Kiyo's family is playing a game of D&D.
(I'm Jewish on my Dad's side, but my family is not incredibly religious but I know what he's going through)
I rage that this has been an extremely emotional week for me.

Seder pretty much is a game of D&D. We all sit around a table and eat and tell the story of a bunch of intrepid adventurers escaping from a despotic warlord while a level 20 cleric casts plagues upon the enemy.
Some may say we've lost our way, but I believe we've not gone far enough.
For the last 3 mornings, I've woken up with a sore throat (which goes away an hour or so after I've been awake) and all stuffed up. Last night, however, I developed this kick-ass dry cough that hurts my throat and my chest. I was pretty sure I was going to cough up a lung. Rage at getting sick.
No matter how many times I've done it over the past 2 years at this job, I will never ever be a morning person. Getting up in the morning sucks, I hate it, and I hate feeling like I can't focus because I didn't get enough sleep. Rawrraragagahgahgahaubbqsauceirowjasdfkl.

How the bloody hell are you supposed to get your stuff done if everything closes at 18:00 (post office!!!!!!!!!!) or 19:00 (grocery stores, everything else)?! Lucky me there's online banking, but there's no online post office so GRRRRRRRRR. It's even worse if you need something from an apothecary.
I helped myself to some leftover beef stew in the fridge, then thought, hey, it's one in the morning, let's get stoned.
What I didn't know was that the stew had gone bad -- bad enough to make me violently ill. Meanwhile (if anyone here is familiar with the typical pot lingo), I had managed to reach a solid [9].
It was the most uncomfortable and terrifying experience I've had in recent memory.

Have babies. Don't stop until you get a son.

I like you.
