during the summer, when we keep our windows open and the bees are out, some will get lost in the evening and think the lights in the house are the sun that they can find their way home by. this one thought she could get home by going in our bathroom. i gave her some sugar water and a couple flowers with dew on them, so she might make it through the night and be able to find her way back in the morning, but right now she seems more hell bent on sitting on my hand to meticulously clean herself.
New art show's up, pt. 1. we're actually friends with the guy who does the pinstriping, he's nice. last year he was one of the first 26 pinstripers to have an exhibit in an actal museum.
!!!!!! thank you all these are wonderful (just like you)
hey, does anyone have jewish movie suggestions not based around the holocaust?
We stopped in downtown Corning to get pizza with my grandparents last night. While they and my sister were inside ordering, my mum and I were sitting on a bench near by and talking. While there was a lull in the conversation, this man walked by. I want to say he was about 5'8, stocky, and had an extremely stark farmers tan. He had dark, chin length hair that was pushed back, and a goatee. He wore a wide brimmed, leather cowboy hat, a t shirt with the sleeves and part of the sides cut off, loose jeans, and cowboy boots with spurs on them. The shirt had a whole paragraph about "the future of agriculture" on it. As he walked past us, his spurs a-janglin', he said in a surprisingly high and superior voice "It pays to be a military brat". Once he was out of earshot my mother proclaimed him "interesting," at the exact same time as I said "my husband".

fuck i accidentally deleted the post about the people at my synagogue and i'm mad cause i don't get to go this week, so here you all get to see it again:
my rabbi who will take every chance to tell you how shephardic jews Are Right and curses
the lady with the leopard print bag who dances the whole time
the lady who crochets yarmulkes
the little girl who runs around with her yarmulke on her face and her infinite dolls
my rabbi's wife who introduced doing a conga line during Yom Kippur because "you're all being to depressing, we're getting our souls cleaned today, lighten up."
all the weird old men, except when they eat all the good stuff off the lunch buffet
the very stressed and very tired starbucks manager
the All Powerful Linda
Hannah and her sister who are planning the garden we're going to put by the playground
the other rabbi with the sparkly tallit
this isn't a person, but in case we ever run out of extra yarmulkes, there's a doilie and if you get stuck with the doilie we all get to laugh at you, not to be mean, just, it's funny
