or at least I hope not. I’m trying to get back into the rhythm since my hiatus from Judaism classes and grad school classes because of the high holidays of juggling everything “reasonably well.” So far, so good. My homework has been on time, my work has been good–I WILL pass more students this marking period if I have to hurt them, I’ve managed the reading for grad school, I actually sleep…until 8am because I made all the copies and organized everything in class the night before. Things are going well. Still, I feel sort of “off” because I didn’t daven this past weekend. I didn’t realize what an effect that would have on me. Going to try to get to it before going to bed. Also, I think I ate really unkosher sushi today—as in has crab seeds, whatever that means! Represented Dominicans and Jews in grad school today during a conversation which begs the question…can I be a Dominincan Jew or will I be a Jewish Dominican girl. Where does American fall in line? How do I juggle all these different identifications without LOSING something?

P.S. Points on Igor’s decision to be an lawyer! Hooray, I’m probably going to need one soon. 😉
