Unfair

When I told my date last night that I am going to Florida in February, he immediately jumped to the conclusion that my parents have a second home there. He literally just assumed that because I am a Jewish girl from the east coast, my family MUST have a house in Florida. And that really pissed me off.

Because why DON’T we have a house in Florida, Mom and Dad?

A Letter to God (Yom Kippur 2013)

Hi God!

Here’s the deal– I’m not fasting. But here are some jewy things I’ve done so far today to make up for it:
1. Ran 18 miles (aka: suffered)
2. Woke up anxious 
3. Argued with the CVS cashier about the validity of my coupon (and saved a cool 3 bucks!)
4. Gave my unsolicited opinion
5. Complained about my hair
6. Wandered

And tonight I plan to dance with no rhythm, but believe wholeheartedly in the moment that I look awesome.

Hope this will suffice,
Emily
