Greetings From Petra

I have two unposted drafts for this blog, but both are rather lame. Bah. So here are some random thoughts:

1. Eragon is a terrible movie. I thought it would be ok since I haven't read the book, but it is just horribly bad.

2. Avatar: The Last Airbender series is great. I watched all three seasons over a one- to two-week period. Zuko and Appa are my favorite characters. The movie version is bad and the kid who plays Aang in the movie is a really bad actor.

3. I saw a really cool bolt of cloud to cloud lightning a few days ago.

4. It's 1:30 a.m. and it's cold outside (and I'm listening to Christmas music while I type).

5. I'm currently reading The Secret Garden. I had the book when I was a kid, but I always preferred looking at the cover to actually reading it.

6. I want to type more, but I need to research the prices of Nidhal's textbooks for the coming semester.

7. My postcard collection has been expanded by one. I now have a postcard from Jordan

8. We had dinner with some friends tonight, and they made a dish called Oozi. It's either from Jordan or from Palestine, and it was delicious. I need to learn how to make it.

Has anyone ever grilled peaches? Did you eat it with sweet stuff or something else? Was it good?
