. . .two broken wrists were not exactly what I had in mind. The Punster is typing on my behalf. I seem to have caught my shoe on a rough spot on the floor at Israeli folk dancing last night, and I broke my fall with my hands. The good news is that I did not hurt my back or my head. The bad news is that I am in casts that go over my elbows on both arms, and can barely type while holding a pencil between my fingers and tapping the keys with the eraser. So you will not be hearing much from me for the next month or so. Please put in a kind word upstairs for Léah bat Esther v' Ozer.
About Me
- Name: Shira Salamone
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.
