Day of Atonement

Today is Yom Kippur. And it's gotten me to thinking about my Jewishness.

Well, I'm Catholic (in name only), but that's practically Jewish.

Our respective clergies both dress in black and make us feel guilty.

It's a good day to look inward, to reflect on the year just past, and to ask God for help in the year ahead.

It's also a good day to just shut up.

Peace! Shalom!

My friend Michael, who is Jewish, said he stayed home from work and watched "A Star Is Born" and figured that was enough Judy-ism for him.

That sounds like my idea of a good time!

So, has he got a boyfriend????

LOL. Yes. In fact, I gave you both HIS blog URL and his boyfriend's blog URL awhile ago. (Besides, you don't want another long-distance relationship...Michael is in LA. You know how those LA types are)
