Greetings from my couch where I am stationed thanks to the rain, the back pain and trying to fast on Yom Kippur. Trying, you say? Yea, I couldn’t hold out. Instead of fasting entirely, I had Cheerios for breakfast (gone stale, no less) and for lunch there were chips, soda and two donuts. Gross? Yes. My stomach was eating itself and I caved after one night.

The rain is making my back hurt, my hands hurt (yes, I’m only on the internet doing some homework and surfing) so I am not at work where I should be today. I took the day off to finish some homework and rest and take a two-day Shabbat starting…now!:)

Oh, right, about Yom Kippur…wow. Just, mostly, wow. Especially for the people who weren’t like me and actually fasted and didn’t need breaks and prayed all day…wow. I love the Jewish people. Take me!
