pittsfield-jew

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?

waiting for program

Right now Jonny is having his program reviewed by Lea. She and he ate at their desks today. The Hollywood conference was being used for a video conference. Jonny had enough boredom for one morning. He was falling asleep in the 10:30 meeting. That meeting occurs every Monday at 10:30. The leader decided to make it less of a snooze fest today. But it didn't work. Jonny was seeing people not in the room. He saw oranges and was generally dreaming and falling deep asleep. Lea doesn't sound like she is looking at the program anyway. Angelina called a couple of times and she is now asleep. She had a difficult dentist appointment followed by a difficult day. The description of the weekend's event usually are difficult to describe because they well just are. The kids: Alberta, Jesse and Lorraine fought and played. The played in snow and played board games and played board games with Jesse cheating and they played bored games with Jonny winning and losing. And he was falling asleep too. And he keeps coughing, more like choking a hair ball. But Jonny isn't a cat. From the book he is reading Motherless Brooklyn it sounds more like an involuntary tic. Jonny should be done by now but instead he rests on page 274 because he played with his lighter and played with his candle all weekend. Boys will be boys. He has Rabbi Grossman's chumash all queued up vayechi. But he hasn't listened to it. It has been too much of an interactive day to quietly reflect on the teachings of a Brooklyn sounding Rabbi cast off into California. Saturday's services were great. Jonny was wandering in thought reading the chumash, the very same one Alberta has as an early present from the temple. Here is why Esau is so evil. He wants you to pour food into his mouth. But why is this evil. Because he says hurry up I'll day. The reason he says this is because he wants to commit sins because he will die. Esau thanks to blogger spell checker says there is no reason to perform mitzvahs because we are all going to die. This is kinda like no need to make the bed because you are going to lie in it. After services, everyone but Angelina went to Lorraine's friend's house to pick her up. The friend isn't an actress just yet. But the mom came over after the play date. She is a real estate agent apparently. She offered advice. Guess what she told Angelina to buy carpeting. Jonny spent about 17 minutes talking to Wendell while Alberta had soccer practice. Kristina called later to wish Alberta a happy birthday. Jonny listened to the message on the voice mail this morning when he got to work. Might as well use the blogger labels capability. If the labels are of interest to the reader read the blog, skip otherwise. Jonny talked to Elizabeth. She is going on a cruise this week to the Caribbean.
