My microwave is dead. My other microwave can’t be kashered (don’t ask, it just can’t be). Ergo I have no microwave for Pesach. Feh.
My house was guzzling so much energy these past two days, I think there’s a special global warming cloud forming over my roof.
I started reading one of the books on my MA [...]
Purell does not remove chametz germs from one’s hands. If one was touching a piece of bread (shudder), and one then wants to resume making Pesach food, one cannot just Purell one’s hands. This will kill bacteria. It will not remove chametz. This is because chametz is not a bacterium.
The reason your Pesach pots, etc. [...]

This is the post I promised you, the really really long post that I added to on and off while my computer wasn’t working. Prepare to become educated on the subjects of my minivan, my often-flooding basement, and other sundry things. And if for some reason you missed it, I’ve posted THREE times already this [...]
Some stupid loser idiot jerk broke into my car last night and stole my GPS. And the multiple socket thing it was plugged into, which we really, really need during our summer road trip. And all the cables that were plugged into it. What’s the moron going to do with those, I would like to [...]
The light of… FREEDOM!! I have a working computer! I’m lying in bed using it right now! I no longer have to use G’s bad bad desktop that has bad bad Vista on it (shudder) while sitting at his desk (shudder) in his crowded study! I get to do my work and surf the web [...]
No, I don’t always check my horoscope (nor, obviously, do I believe them); they’re just occasionally fun. But this, I think, is an auspicious message on the day we are to meet with the school board to negotiate the necessary modifications for R:
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Cooperation isn’t the same thing as compromise — at least not [...]
Yes, she would. “Ima, one of the trees that fell is my favorite tree! The one with the birdhouse!” There’s another tree in that yard with a birdhouse as well, of course, but apparently YS preferred this one. There’s also a zebra in that yard (not a real one), which thank God escaped damage.
Here, check [...]
Today’s horoscope:
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A prideful person you know may be making a mistake. Others are inclined to tear this person down emotionally. Make a sacred intention that you will be the kind of person who supports others when they need it.
Now, I’ll do my best to be that kind of person — really [...]
So. Tired. Worn out to the bone. This is pathetic. I’m 35 years old (35½, actually, as of Monday ), and I can’t run half a block without feeling stiff and battered an entire day later. What gives? Perhaps the fact that I don’t exercise? I was on my 3rd successful day of [...]
Not yet, but getting ready. R and I are leaving for SuperStroke, USA in about an hour and a half, and we won’t be back until like the minute before Shabbos. G is meeting us there tomorrow night. No, nothing happened (yet), thank God; it’s just the next step of testing and whatnot, plus a [...]
