The first post says it all Shalom, This is the home of the Pittsfield Jew. Sure its neat to read about Jews in Brooklyn who are very observant but how about a not so observant Jew who lives in the Mid West?

Monday August 29, 2005

OK so i am bored out of my mind now. Went for a 8 mile bike ride with Z to recycle some batteries. Went North on Carpenter, West on Ellsworth and to the dump at Platt Road. i convinced Z to pee in the bathroom. He had needed to go earlier. i was pulling him in a trailer in the back of my bike. After he peed we went home. S wanted us home by 2PM since R was going to her friend E's house at 2PM. It was 20 to 2 at this point. Then ten minutes later i saw a garage sale sign. And even though i had no money i was loth to miss going there. So we went South on Platt road. And Z was complaining again about he had to pee again. Perfect. We went to the garage sale with him in a dress and a shirt on top. They let us use the bathroom. Ten minutes later S called again, where are you. We got home by 2:30 and Z fell asleep. He asked me 100 questions about the dead cat we saw along the way. He only slept for about 20 minutes. It must have been the sound of his mother screaming at his father that made him pass out. Next i was watching L, and her friend E. They wanted to go to the park. So I pulled both of them and Z rode his bike, since they woke him. i was supposed to put him on the floor and let him sleep. Later we had to pick R up at her friends house. I passed page 300 of Return of The King. Read Chapter 20 of Kings II. Started Chapter 13 of Optimizing VB. Read some of my Friedman re'eh ריה parsha. Compared the translation and commentaries between that and chabad rashi version. Quite different. Friedman talks about tenting G-D's words and returning the Jews to the Oaks of Moreh. Rashi doesn't mention the tent or the Oaks in the translation or the commentary. Finished the movie The Secret of Roan Inish. Sold the movie Platoon Leader. R had no soccer games this weekend. L had her birthday party at PuterZ. Found out my meeting with the Dean is about low SOQ scores. Student Opinion Questionaires. Meanwhile the school asked me to teach another class. Now S wants the money and doesn't want me to take the Oracle class i am attending tonight. I even had time to start a fantasy football team today. NFL starts this weekend. There are also many soccer games in Troy. My parents called and left a voice mail on my cell phone since i left two voice mails on theirs. They were in Flanders, NJ for the weekend visiting friends who introduced them to each other back in October of 66'.
