I really love lunches at Kutz. Rabbi Eve and I were eating together at first because no one else was around, and we got to talking about my future. She thinks that Binghamton is a great school, and that I'm going to do so well there. She also wanted to make sure that I still wanted to be a Rabbi, and then gave me advice I get a lot. Take some time ( Read more... )

I am so so so so happy. I was just talking to one of my favorite people (I know, I have a lot of favorites) and she wants to be the one to drive me up to Binghamton when I move in.

I'd always thought of him as a mentor and an incredible rabbinic and personal role model. Not only is he a Rabbi, but he's involved with everything from movies, plays, and most recently a greeting card ( Read more... )

Well today was awesome. Preschool went well...lunch with the office ladies and Mitch was delightful. Mitch and Eddie are going to put a camp computer in my cabin for me to use. How cool is that? Took a good nap, and got woken up my Mitch who was nice enough to let me know that he was going to the bank. I deposited my paychecks and then we went to ( Read more... )

I got a random call from an acquaintance from high school asking me to translate a Hebrew phrase from her. I definetely haven't heard from her since graduation ( Read more... )
