Shana tova!

[trope]

I dunno how many Jewish people there are on these boards, but since it's Rosh Hashana, I just figured that I would wish everyone good yom tov!

Shana tova, Matthew!

When're you going to do tashlich? Because you certianly didn't yesterday or today.

 

[trope]

I know I didn't. Bad me, eh?

I have until the 13th to do it, so I'll probably go on Tuesday after you get all the Thanksgiving stuff done with your sister and whatnot.

I know you won't participate in it, but you can come watch if you want. I know it fascinates you. Haha

 

[hhayes]

i have no idea what it is! But shana tova to you as well, right?

 

[trope]

It's the Jewish celebration of Rosh Hashana, for the new year. It comes before Yom Kippur, and in between the two are the days of repentence.

Shana tova is just a way to say "good year".

 

[hhayes]

oh okay cool thanks now i know

 

[GuesSAngel]

I think I wanna be jewish...so i can have the nine days of presents, but still celebrate christmas

 

[andcuriouser]

Hahaha, that's what we do. Matt's Jewish, I'm not, so we do both!

 

[GuesSAngel]

i wanna be spoiled too! haha

 

[andcuriouser]

You have no idea. Hahahaha

Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur are serious holidays, though. All about repenting and reflecting and being introspective.

 

[GuesSAngel]

I could do that. Sit around and be lazy...and do the reflecting thing.
