Yesterday

[mamadeb]

Last week, I was asked by a group of women I meet with on Saturday afternoons to prepare a d'var, a talk, on this week's Torah portion. Not too surprisingly, I didn't actually write anything until Friday afternoon, but that was okay.

I gave the talk while fighting a headache and nausea - or rather, fighting those before and after the talk, but not during. During I was fine. Later on, after Shabbat was over, I let myself get sick and spent the rest of the evening in a daze of misery. But I'm better now.

If you want to read a more or less revised text of what I said, it's on dvorah's journal, or you can just go here.
