This is the last day of year 5770, so tomorrow I will need a new name for my blog. I’m really bad at thinking up titles and I can’t think of something to reflect all my interests: history, tv, books, cross-stitch, feminism etc. I’ve been trying to think of some sort of quote, maybe Shakespeare or some medieval author or a really cool woman, but nothing comes to me. I’ll probably just do something basic.

So Janna’s husband does have meningitis. Now they are checking to see if it is viral or bacterial. But that is one scary thing to deal with. I’m sending good thoughts into the universe.

Awesome Secretary took care of the health insurance paperwork really quickly, so the University graciously allowed me to purchase insurance until January. At least I have insurance again. One thing not to think about.

I went to the bank today to deposit some money and saw the smoke and all the fire trucks. We live close to the ocean and fields of reeds and last year we had a really close call with the giant fire. This time the fire was in a park area some distance away but the smoke was very noticeable on the blue sky background. I think it took firefighters eight hours to put it out.

Highlander “Little Tin God”. It would be easy for Immortals to abuse their power over young immortals who don’t know what’s going on. It is so easy for Immortals to claim themselves as gods. Mac was like a kid when Joe is talking about the legend of killing on the holy ground. The whole conversation with Joe was a lot of fun – about how Watchers get their job. Sending Derek to Carl for training does not sit too comfortably with me.

“Messenger” I like that Culbraith was more complicated than just the normal bad guy. He found out his family is dead and he just wants to hurt everyone else and it cost’s Mac’s friend his life. Joe, Mac and Methos sure do drink a lot. I love the interplay between Mac and Methos in their first scene. Mac throws the shoes on the floor, Methos throws the coat off the chair, they grab scissors back and forth. They are so married.

Bear’s parents got a kitty named Kate in the beginning of August. Here are some cute kitty pictures.

Since it is New Year, we dipped the apples in honey and I said some prayers. I do like the ten days from Rosh Hashanah to Yom Kippur since by the end of it, it feels like a renewal. And renewal is always welcome.

This past year since I have started this blog has been interesting, full of ups and downs, as I think most years are. I’m glad I wrote it down. It has been a difficult summer because of my family health issues and I hope that next year will bring health to my loved ones and some happiness too.

I did manage to keep the blog for the whole year, give a day or two, so yay! 352 journal entries. 267 pages in Word.

Shana Tova! Happy 5771!
