So, it's been about 500 years since my last post, and I'm not quite sure why I'm posting now.  Perhaps just to waste time.  I have a ton of Hebrew papers to grade and Shabbat is quickly approaching (I can't write on Shabbat, so that means I can't grade said papers), but I'm pretty indifferent right now.  My plan is to read...a lot...because I have ( Read more... )

Fall Fest Sunday night was a blast.  I got to see and hang out with people I hadn't seen for quite some time, which is always nice.  I signed up for too many listservs, but hey, there was free food, good company, and I got to see Inversions modern dance and the Clefhangers perform, so I'm not complaining.

Monday was a bad day.  My roommate had her ( Read more... )

Okay, it's been way too long since I've written, and so much has been going on that quite frankly, I don't even remember half of what's happened since Friday.  I guess the only really big news from Friday is that I finally found a shrug, exactly what I've been looking for, and on super clearance.  I got it for $3.19...how sweet is that?

Saturday I ( Read more... )

I went to pick the girls up around 11.  Saw pictures from Steph's trip when I got there, and Christine brought hers along to look at later, since she had considerably less.  We ate lunch at Ham's, which was good, and I hadn't been there in the longest time.  After we came back to my house, Chris told us all about her trip and then I did the same ( Read more... )

So this morning when I woke up, my mother had gone out to do some errands.  I'm thinking to myself, 'Great, how am I supposed to stay awake with no one to talk to?', but as it turns out, it was very good for me.  I heated up my coffee and proceeded to drink it while reading Chapter V of To the Lighthouse.  Virginia Woolf writes so beautifully I ( Read more... )

My mother and I went to JC Penney this afternoon, I with the intent of shopping for tank tops and at least one shrug, to keep Josefa close to me, because she always wore them, my mother with little intent of buying anything.  I found neither item there that was to my liking, however, I did find a large number of other clothes that struck my fancy, ( Read more... )

Yesterday was a full day.  I stayed up all night, which was fun, created a MySpace page finally (all Johanna's fault, as I never would have done it if she hadn't invited me, darn it) and went to the movies to see John Tucker Must Die.  It was entertaining, but I'm not sure if it was really worth the ticket price.  Set up my appointments for this ( Read more... )

After my first Shabbat away from BCI, I finally understand why community is so important in Judaism.  While we were there, they threw that word around all the time, insisting on its importance, about how we were (and I suppose in some sense, still are) a community and forcing us to act like one by doing lots of activities all together.  But Shabbat ( Read more... )

Today there was shopping and packing and eating. My mother and I went to the mall this morning to see the new Bed Bath and Beyond that just opened. It was nice. I also managed to buy a shirt and a new pair of jeans (score!) while we were out. We came back and finished packing ( Read more... )

For the past two days I have definitely not been doing the Tim Conway shuffle.  Oh no, I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to make sure I'm prepared to leave for California on Tuesday.  My flight leaves out of RDU at a ridiculous hour (around 6:40 a.m.), so I'm questioning the need to even go to bed Monday night.  ( Read more... )
