  1. @HarryR No, he was invited by an acquaintance and was just as uncomfortable as I was.
  2. @HarryR I was in super, duper LEAH IS AN INTROVERT, STOP TOUCHING ME defense mode. So, no love bomb. Good to see Franklin from ROI.
  3. @HarryR food was good, but everything made me uncomfortable.
  4. @HarryR friend of a friend invited my friend and he asked me to join. Neither of us will return. So fucking weird.
  5. Feeling about as uncomfortable at a garden supply store as i did last night at the kabbalah center. overwhelmed
  6. @ejacqui I'm at Grand Street now. Want me to come by after and pick up plants? I have car till 5. Could come monday, too.
  7. @HarryR that's because it happened in Portland. :) no, this isn't like the awful jumbotron proposal.
  8. @LaughingLoud It's the worst when it happens as you are sitting, blech!
  9. Also surprised to see something like that come out of Portland with nary a @scottyiseri in it
  10. LipDub couple are actors in Portand... so costume access... Dancing Jews = fiddler on roof, marching band = The Music Man
  11. As much as I hate public proposals, I cried through this sweet lip dub proposal. youtu.be/5_v7QrIW0zY

  13. @stevevance @dciskey @JustinHaugens @bkevenides it's as it becomes a turn lane, right?
  14. @bkevenides did they fill in the grate on the bridge?
  15. @EdenSpodek still in the introduction, but fascinating!
  16. The Ha'aretz article about converts and shavuot with me and @thechavivi haaretz.com/weekend/week-s… @roicommunity
  17. @ramsincanon @yellowbird73 I just remember reading it a feeling 1) lame or 2) what Chicago does she live in? Don't remember the final column
  18. @ramsincanon did you just unpack a long lost box of things wrapped in classic reader paper?
  19. @ramsincanon didn't she have a reader column in the early aughts?
  20. @anniemal I. Am. So. Excited!
