Forecast: Rain, sky of gray
Wish the sun would come this way
It's hard to chase the blues away
On such a damp and dreary day
I've already had my fill
of chill

A tallit-and-tefillin-wearing woman in a traditional Conservative synagogue?! An unorthodox—and non-orthodox—perspective on Jews and Judaism from a perpetual misfit. This blog, welcoming the entire Jewish community, is dedicated to those who take Judaism seriously, but not necessarily literally.

Once upon a time, I belonged to a left-wing egalitarian Conservative synagogue, where I was one of a number of women who wore a tallit—and one of the few members who used an Orthodox prayer book (adding the Mothers, of course). Having moved since then, I now belong to a right-wing traditional Conservative synagogue, where I’m almost always the only woman wearing a tallit—and one of the few members who adds the Mothers. I seem destined to be forever . . . on the fringe.

I don't know if I could live back east. Not made for cold weather.
"Not made for cold weather." Likewise, I'm sure. But then, I'm not made for super-hot weather, either. I figure I get about two good months per year. :)
