Coming to America

No - I'm not writing about the Eddie Murphy movie from the 80s - although that's an exemplary comedy from its time. I'm actually coming home for 3 weeks (Nov 22 - Dec 14) in a few days. It's been 8 months since I've enjoyed the pleasures of home; and while the list of things that I've been missing out here in Tel Aviv is not that long, the things on it are oh so important:

1.) Chipotle
2.) Hot sauce
3.) Chipotle
4.) Seeing my family (probably should come before chipotle)...
5.) Skiing
6.) Seeing old friends
7.) Wearing a jacket
8.) Going to Blackhawk to gamble
9.) Cooking in a real kitchen
10.) Watching snow fall
11.) Making a fire
12.) Not being cut in line
13.) Listening to American accents (thought I'd never actually want to hear that).
14.) Starbucks
15.) Being lazy, stuffing my face and drinking good beer on thanksgiving

Yup. That's what I need.
If anyone who wants to meet up, send me a message on facebook (I won't have a phone!). See you soon.
