The hora...the hora...

OOOOMG.

Was my bar mitzvah this chaotic? I know it didn't involve David version II and his entire family and Granma in the same house at once. Also less clothing trouble I just had a purple caftan with gold trim and looked like a ninny and running around trying to find the right clothing and my talis seems to have vanished and and...aagh. It's utter madness right now.

And David version II won't shut the hell up and he's so damn loud. I want to go curl up under my blanket for the next few hours, not go off to the synagogue and have to talk to people. And my brother will be dancing and it will be silly.

Damn proud of him, mind, I just don't want to dance to "Walk the Dinosaur".

*hugs* Oh dear. Strength and luck to you - and congratulations to David, of course!

^_^ It was pretty great. I'll write it up in a bit.

Mine was relatively unchaotic, but then I hated going to them in the first place so I can't remember any others to share stories about...|D;;;

You could always try finding one of the Torah books - if they have them at the congregation? - and catch up on your reading. I swear that was how I got through half of them, reading the english translations. It passes time if nothing else.

It was actually pretty short, being a Saturday afternoon. That and I did some of the prayers myself.
