On adult bat mitzvahs and crankiness
Hm. I’m starting to think the stress was affecting me more than I’d realized.
Go check out this post by Elisson, my haftarah tutor. He’s talking about me.
Thanks, Elisson. It made me smile. Yeah, I think you were definitely there in spirit. Next time I chant haftarah, you’ll be there physically. Put 22 Cheshvan 5769 on your calendar. I think I’ll give it a try again next year. And oh, yeah—the reason I chose the date is because it’s the date I would have done my bat mitzvah originally.

What, you’re gonna wait a whole year?
Naw.
Before you observe the anniversary of this wonderful occasion, you’re gonna get a few other haftarot under your belt. Yes, you are.
