Reunions, Shavuot, and state of the wedding
Tuesday, June 10th, 2008 08:32 pmIt's still Shavuot, technically, so I might be considered to be jumping the gun, but whatever. I'm home hanging out in the A/C-by-proxy computer room (next to the bedroom where Tiger Boy put in the window unit on Sunday, not a moment too soon), eating a large bowl of blueberries for dinner. Procrastinating on shul work (updating the web calendar and laying out the overdue June newsletter), but technically I shouldn't touch those until 9pm, so hey, here I am.
Sunday night, we went to the [beginning of the] Community Tikun Leil Shavuot organized by the Charles River Beit Midrash. It was a cool thing, as last year, and I was also pleasantly surprised to run into
debka_notion there. :-) Monday there was shul, including the cool and trippy "wheels within wheels" haftarah; today there was more shul, including the Book of Ruth, and special bonus outdoor picnic with cheesecake.
So, earlier in the weekend, I took Tiger Boy to my 15th (!) Brandeis reunion, and it was ( kinda fun, kinda disappointing. )
My dad's back home in Indiana after spending about 2 months down in Florida dealing with fiscal matters on behalf of my ailing grandfather. I finally reached him today and we had a good chat. My stepmother has also apparently resumed the role of Person Who Does Not Hate My Guts, for now, so that takes some psychic weight off.
And, for those of you who have been dying to know, here is ( some wedding nattering behind the cut. ) Gah! How is "overwhelmed" not a choice of mood icon?
