Lucy was leaping all over the cute Russian Peapod delivery guy in the elevator this morning. He laughed and said he had a 50 lb dalmatian but not to worry, she'd calm down when she got a little older. I didn't have the heart to tell him she's eight.
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?

Hil! Sail! Lee! You too!
Hil, do you eat apples with honey on Rosh Hashana, as a sign for a sweet year? It's yummy, even if it doesn't sign anything.
[Edit: oh, Kat, I'm sorry about the hellish. But it's good to read that the one thing you really can't control, the students, is working out. Good luck with the un-overwhelming process. Or is it dis-overwhelming?]

Yep. Very yummy.
This year, my mom found these weird apples that have pinkish streaks going all through the inside, so they looked really pretty sliced.

Kat! Miss you! And still have no idea how on earth you do mornings. I got up early (for me) and now can barely look at my monitor without my head screaming. Ah well.
The signs advertising sukkahs are back! As are the sukkahs. The one I find the most amusing is the blue tarp one behind a bagel bakery in a strip mall. There are some rather elegant ones I see around the neighborhood. And then there are the blue tarp ones.
