Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Oh, poor Zoe! I hope she heals quickly.

Happy, a little belated, birthday, Strix!

Much ~ma for Zoe.

My cheap car without a ton of miles alert went off on this morning. (We're not really looking for one anymore, but I haven't canceled the alert yet). If Em was actually planning to start driving now that she's 16, I'd be all over this one.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Hey, I have a query and a problem. I need to know what is appropriate to wear to my kiddos bar mitzvah, in the synagogue. Are capped sleeve acceptable or should they be at least elbow length sleeves? I understand that my skirt length should probably be about knee length? And do I have to wear a hat or scarf?

I'm trying to get everything in a row before October when we have the bar mitzvah in Pennsylvania.

Strix, it depends on the synogogue w/r/t sleeves. There's no requirement for women to cover their heads.

Monday. I hate you and all of your works.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Monday. I hate you and all of your works.

Yes.

This morning I've been all "Blah blah blah Monday blah blah stock market plummets blah blah..."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That would be a hilarious car to buy for a 16 year old!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

This morning I've been all "Blah blah blah Monday blah blah stock market plummets blah blah..."

I sold almost all my individual stocks last week. Muwahahaha!

I can't even get into T. Rowe Price's website this morning. There must be a million people all freaking out at once.

Thanks, Sparky. I think I'll play it safe with sleeves, or wear a shrug or a cardigan. It'll be October, anyway.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Strix dress code depends on the synagogue - do you know whether its reform, conservative, orthodox, or what? That'll narrow down what the requirements probably are. If the synagogue has a website they'll probably list any dress code requirements there. I wouldn't worry too much - guests are usually cut some slack.

I was thinking I just needed more sleep but today I feel like maybe I'm actually coming down with something. Maybe I will go home and eat Jell-o on the couch.
