On my way to the fruit and vegetable store today I came across a ganennet (kindergarden teacher) with her kids, standing outside the municipality with their Independence Day flags. The kids were singing and were, frankly, quite cute.
Tonight we commemorate Memorial Day, the day for fallen soldiers. By tomorrow night the fireworks will be blasting (and my dogs will be well-settled under my bed) and everyone will be running around spraying foam on each other (what a strange custom!) and enjoying the celebrations.
We are a schizophrenic nation.
