A Lack of Preparation

[debka_notion]

I realized today that I don't own any non-leather shoes at this point, at least not that I have with me, and I think not at all. I know that I realized this at Tisha B'Av, and borrowed sandals from my apartmentmate. So, I guess socks with no shoes it is- probably the slipper-sock things that have at least a little traction. If this is my worst lack of preparation for the holiday, that would be pretty good, though.

Spiritually- well, I have no idea where I stand. Being sick has been a very strange addition to the Aseret Y'mei Tshuvah. We'll see how the fast goes.

Thanks- it wasn't bad, I just blew my nose on occasion. The only bad part was having a coughing fit that was really hard to stop when I was going to sleep- in general it was a remarkably Easy fast. Go know. I think having spent the week subsisting more on tea than on food had gotten my stomach used to things, and had also gotten be actually well hydrated before the fast.

Blew your nose? Was it t^eqi`o, sh<sup>e</sup>vorim, or t<sup>e</sup>ru`o?

It was a method of being able to breath through my nose. That's all.
