Call me a rug muncher

Yesterday we went to Yaffo, and came back with big rugs, tapestries, and a hookah. We got pretty good deals on all after some bargaining.
The highlight of the day was during the bargain for the tapestry, when I had the following conversation (in hebrew):

Me: I'll give you 60 shekel, this is final, no more.
Guy: 100, shekel, come on.
Me: 60 shekel
Guy: 85 shekel.....Look! I have the same dirt in my eyelashes as you do!


This upset me, as I don't take my blepharitis as a joke (see this link for more details.)

We ended up paying 60 shekels for the two tapestries, and I was satisfied.
Jules joins the army on monday, so I'll be in Jerusalem after tomorrow until he's all uniformed and stuff. (Is it weird that every time I think of the army I just picture Jules coming back like Buster from Arrested saying "Mother, look at the medals I got from army"? I need to stop watching that show)

Sheddy and Mara from CWP will be in Jerusalem, so it'll be good to see them. Also, if you're reading this and you go to white pine, MIKE SUSSMAN GOES TO THE SAME SCHOOL AS ME. I ran into him on campus today, it was crazy.

Have a good weekend!
