Home? Sweet, Home?

Today my mom told me that I should update my blog in case people were still reading.

So for everyone reading: I'm alive, back in the states, slowly adjusting to life here.

Jet lag is over, shopping and American coffee drinking has begun, the endless social events and meals are continuing. Have new contacts, a cute new haircut and a supercool red cell phone.

Tomorrow I'm going up to see three of my best friends at the Appel Farm Folk Festival. I'll stay over in NJ and see Jamie before coming back to Maryland to have dinner with Adrienne.

One week ago I was davening under the stars in what I thought was my home.

Tonight I'll be davening under different stars and wishing I was back there.

Bittersweet? Liminal? Just plain hard. Yep.
