Rockets again - 24.11.24
They seem to hit whenever I’m alone in my car and when there’s no shelter in the area and my only choice is a sidewalk or a dry field. What will happen when the rains come? I got dirty enough today.
It started when I was driving through a short cut, a narrow road bordered by waist hight iron fences. again Some app put the siren on and I screeched to a halt. But I was the only one hearing this siren, and it stopped suddenly. The cars behind me started honking, making me realize it was probably a mistake to stop, so I started up again, drove around five hundred meters, and the sirens started for real, this time all over. I stopped the car, grabbed my bag, jumped the fence and did the duck and cover shtik. There were a couple of the guys who’d honked me a minute before in the same position.
Now Ezi always says to lie flat until the rockets have fallen, and then go to the duck-and-cover position one minute later, but I really don’t like lieing on my stomach.
Anyway, I got up and drove to my friend’s place, where all the other guests were late as well. All were dust-covered and a bit shook up.
But our country’s politics was much more captivating a subject, and within minutes we had forgotten the whole rocket attack…
