Yay productivity!!
Shabbat was especially wonderful (although not productive...clearly). On Friday afternoon, we had the opportunity to see some of our friends from Bronfman! We made a wonderful dinner (shakshuka! and stir-fry) and went to beautiful services (again at Shira Chadasha) and had a dinner guest. It was so wonderful that everything came together for Shabbat: dinner guest, plans for lunch (at another Bronfman friend's house), and plans for seuda shlishit at Shimon's. It was really nice to see Bronfman people whom we hadn't seen in a while.
Seuda shlishit: Shimon is great. We talked about politics, the hypocrisy of the republican party, sarah palin, etc. Shimon turns out to be pretty passionate about American politics (for someone who made Aliyah).
We then went out for coffee etc with bronfman people and some Israeli friends at this really awesome jazz club/open jam session.
Things are coming together in terms of plans too. We start at Yad B'yad and Open House on Tuesday, and we start learning with Shimon on wednesday. I visited Pardes today. What wonderful people. I'm very eager to start learning there. I am clearly the youngest there, but it is such a great opportunity to learn with passionate young Jews.
Sorry for the discombobulation. I'm quite tired.
