Merry Yom Kippur everyone

So it's Yom Kippur. I think. I'm pretty sure it is. My dad mentioned it on the phone earlier, and my night class tonight was canceled because of it, which was odd but who am I to complain?

Anyway, this is the biggy for us Jews. Supposedly.

I don't know. We're supposed to fast, so I'm fasting.

But Adaham, you're only Jewish in title, but you're not really Jewish.

I know. I should mention I've been fasting for about two hours, or since I ate dinner. I will most likely fast until tomorrow morning, when I may or may not eat breakfast. Of course, if hunger strikes me at all tonight, I'll eat.

It's tough, fasting. I mean, I'm not hungry because I ate dinner, but all I can think about food because I know I'm not supposed to be eating any of it. Then again, I also don't really care. So am I fasting, or just not hungry? I'm not hungry. What's the point of all this? I don't have one, other to point out what a bad Jew I am. I will say I've toned it down though. During past Yom Kippurs I eat more than I normally would just because I'm supposed to be fasting. Maybe tomorrow I'll pig out, but I doubt it.

I guess I don't have anything else to add. But I'll keep going because I have a five page paper due tomorrow, and I currently have my name written and that's it. And I don't really want to do any more than that for now, so I won't.

Today on the escalator I saw a kid in a "White and Nerdy" sweatshirt. I laughed, but at him.

I guess that's really all I have to add.
