Finaly... Quality Time

It's 20:18 PM. 

I'm home.  It's quiet.  I believed I failed to mention it, but when I came back from Israel, I came back on my own.  My wife and two kids stayed back for a few more days.  It is quiet in the house because Shiri and Guy are not here, nor is my wife Dorit.  What it means is that Nickelodeon isn't playing at top volume, and there's no arguments over what station to watch.  It's quiet because I am sitting here on my own doing emails, reading news, writing a blog entry, talking with friends on the phone.  Adult things.  Things I usually don't get to do on regular days.  I actually have time for myself.  Quality time on my own.  You have to admit, everybody needs to have some time alone.  To think, to reflect.  To read without being interrupted to the point you read the same line thrice, realizing you don't even remember it. 

It's 20:30 PM.

I'm home, alone, wishing for some noise.  Wishing Shiri and Guy to be here and fight over the TV stations.  Wishing for Dorit's calm voice reading Guy a story he likes.  Wishing for Tom and Jerry and Mr. Bean, and Star Trek.  Well, it's only 18 hours and 25 minutes before they land.  I can't wait...
