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.

This is the second workday in a row that I've been unable to access the "Compose" window on my office computer. I guess I'll just have to write my posts in "Comments" windows, then copy them into the "Compose" window when I have time at home. I am *not* a happy camper. :(
Well, I guess I *shouldn't* be a happy camper on the day before Tisha B'Av. Have an easy and meaningful fast.
Have you tried clearing the cache and cookies on your browser at work? It seems odd that they would block just the compose window and not all of Blogger.
have you tried working at work? seems that blogging is something that is best done on your own dime.
I tend to assume she does it on Lunch or breaks.
Indeed, I blog between assignments. My job tends to be feast or famine--either I'm up to my eyeballs in work, or I'm surfing the Internet. When I have time between assignments for Internet surfing, that's when I blog.
Er, Ms. Net Nitwit has never tried clearing the cache and/or the cookies, which I thought were for eating. :) This should be interesting.
