i am fighting a hydra of frustrating questions this week. what am i so dizzy all the time? what is wrong with my driving? where is my kindle? im not even gonna mention the canada exchange email that was severely lacking in info. why couldn't i send a text message without enabling mobile data? why did i get a reminder for an optician's appointment i didn't order? and most importantly, WHY IS IT SNOWING AGAIN

Annual Passover traditions include breakfast with my dad.  If only it wasn't so early in the morning.
Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

well then at least you all right snow, this here is snow in 4+ celsius! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. IT MEANS GROSS SLUSHY STREETS. IT MEANS CARS DRIVING PAST WILL COVER YOUR LEGS WITH GROSS SOG.

ahhhhhhhhh I feel like I'm so angry at everything today, but at least I solved the mystery of the optician appointment. I showed up at the shop to ask, and they told me it was a mistake almost before I stated my confusion. Just as I left, two other guys entered, picking up their phones to show the same message.
you'll know where to find me.

The sun is too bright and keeps waking me up at 6... This is why I hate summer...

My list of why summer is awful:
no snow
much sun
too hot

Yes. Well, temperatures above 20C would be contained in a sauna, at least. or lava fields.

Wow! I'm not sure if that's better or worse than mosquitoes.

Hm. Since I am on this forum, my opinion on Iceland shifted from "It's an interesting place I'd like to see sometime" to "Iceland - not even once". Just saying, Laufey, don't be surprised when Iceland sues you for lost tourist revenue :D

Somehow I think we're still safe on that regard (note: they mean more than last year, which was over a million)(in 2017 we might cross the 2 million line).

They're not as bad as mosquitos though.

True, they're mostly just annoying and try to fly into your eyes, nose and mouth but at least most of them don't sting. There's some flies that do though.
