kressel made up a meme about things she was grateful for, and I never got around to doing it myself. And now yaldat_chayil also did the meme [I guess it's gone pretty far, considering the two would have never met ever] and tagged everyone. Which I guess means that I have to do it.
1. Wonderful people like Livia and Ari Levine who help me feel better.
2. Penn Hakafot- simchat torah here is amazing
3. Women's torah reading- I would be really sad if I never could read Torah again in a halachically [or what I believe to be halachically] acceptable manner. For 2 years now we've had a women's Simchat Torah reading, and I get to use awesome High-Holiday trope
4. Chad Gadya. If you've never heard Penn's chad gadya then you've never really had the chad gadya experience
5. Working heat [though if I had another blanket in my room I'd be a lot happier...]
6. Yosef making cool outdoor barbeques in 50 degree weather [we carried down lit candles and looked like a cult!]
7. Ilana's giant DVD collection, which always is there for entertainment
8. My crazy friends, who are quite crazy in a good way
9. My nice apartment which lends itself to being a hub of social events.
10. Sleep. I assume I'm getting some tonight.
I'll write a real update about simchat torah, in theory. B'li neder.

Right now I'm up to the bantering discussions at Netherfield. It's not so sparkling. I really ought to think up a good Torah issue for Darcy and Lizzy to debate about.
