The trouble with AIM

Why is no one answering me online? People are not away, not idle, and not answering *cough*alanscottevil*cough*. And you, too plus_c. Or they're away but not idle and not answering. And then offline. And then online again probably and not answering later on in the day.

Is this a sign that I should be typing up my miqvah stuff from the overdue Penn Library book? Nah.

7 more entries until I hit 1000. Still no idea what to put. I have to use the entries sparingly, I suppose, since I don't want to accidentally have a sucky 1000th post.

Kippot

What is this? All of a sudden everyone wants to commission a kippah from me! (Which is a good thing, provided I can finish them all in time.

I just got a call from the Rabbi's wife (Rabbi here meaning R. Franklin of Temple Emmanu-el, the Conservative shul in Providence) that her daughter is getting bat-mitzvahed, they got a tallis in Israel, and the kippah that came with it was one of those ugly silk "Jew for a day"* kippahs so they wanted a knit one, which would match the tallis.

So I said sure. And I just e-mailed her all my kippahy info.

Hopefully by the time I finish that (and kellev's**, and another one which I can't currently divulge details on) I'll have a shiny new digital camera. Or maybe I can super-knit tonight, and at least finish one while I can take a picture with mom's camera.


*My wording, not hers. She said something like "not good"
**By the way, kellev, you're paying me for the Jerusalem kippah, right?
