    no way in blazes I’m apologizing. It’s enough I apologized for the crazy thread and the tisha b’av thread.

    yeah – but that had nothing to do with me. what? you have a quota of apologies and then no more?

    now that you answered me on this thread, have you checked back at the other thread – ya know – the one where you said we’re back to our feud?

    Can we talk about donuts in Israel lekovod rosh chodesh?

    My favorite is for sure the milchig carmel ones from avichayil; they are just 3.5 shekels and easily beat all competition…

    Rosh Chodesh will be Motzei Shabbos/Sunday.

    In honor of Mevorchem HaChodesh and Mimocharas HaChodesh make sure to buy lots of doughnuts!

    Okay, thank you so much!

    I knew that sidi! For goodness sakes, I wasn’t being literal. Thanks for pointing that out, tho. 🙂

    My nail biting is going great. My campaign to stop nail biting is not going all that great. In fact, I pretty much gave up on it. I need to relieve stress somehow, and if I don’t bite my nails, I yell at everyone around me and am a royal grump. Lol, I can’t deal with the withdrawal symptoms.

    How’s it going for you?

    (I posted that so I can ask you about the nail biting…)

    I’m sorry to hear that you are having it so hard. There must be something else you can use to relieve stress. Why are you so stressed anyway?

    I’m on Day 23 of my no-biting streak! It’s still hard but getting easier, B”H!

    Wow, you’re amazing!!!!! Seriously, I am in awe of you.

    BH, I’m not stressed over anything that major… Just midterms, a Dvar Torah that I hafta give to over a hundred people this shabbos, and an awkward shabbos ahead of me. Daven for me, k? Tefillos from an awesome person like you for sure arouses heavenly mercy, and I need lots of that this shabbos. I hate public speaking, and now I’m gonna hafta give over a five minute Dvar Torah…

    Save me!!!

    I’ve been meaning to say this for a long time, but somehow never found the right time.

    I have always thought of you as one of the most kind, thoughtful, eloquent, intelligent, and special people to post on the cr. You seem to always know the right thing to say, and your middos are so… Well, perfect.

    All around, you’re an amazing person and so glad to have the opportunity to meet you (kinda) on the cr.

    Have a good shabbos!

    Wow! I am speechless!! I think you’re mixing me up with someone else. I am far from any of those!

    How did Shabbos go?

    My goodness, now I can add humble to the list too!

    BH, my Dvar Torah went well. 🙂

    But I bit my nails… I’m gong to start my no nail biting campaign again, b’ezras Hashem.

    You are too funny!

    I knew you would do well!

    I wish I had a suggestion for the nail biting. I still have to fight with myself not to bite. I am not makpid not to peel them as long as I don’t bite… Maybe we should see Dr. Pickell (from The Wayside School) to help us with our addiction? I’m just worried about the side effects!!

    “I am not makpid not to peel them as long as I don’t bite…”

    I assume you’re not talking about Shabbos when you say that.

    Yes, Randomex, that is what I meant. Later on I realized it didn’t sound right but I didn’t have Internet. Thanks again!

    Clarification:

    I try not to bite or peel my nails at all on Shabbos. Most of the time, I’m successful…

    After not biting my nails 32 days straight, today, day 33, I broke my streak! Not because of stress or anything. I just “needed” to bite… There goes that!

    Should I start again?

    Yes -100

    Wow, SiDi! 32 days… You’re amazing.

    ??? ???? ???? ???! (Probably spelled wrong, but whatever.)

    You can do this…

    Thanks Mod-100 and LG! I probably will!

    LG, what about you? You can too! 😉

    And you are also(?) amazing!!

    So to save yourself the trouble, go one day without biting your nails, six times and then you can ride free.

    You are forgetting that the whole point of this was to keep yourself from being mechalel Shabbos. If you have brought your nail biting to your consciousness, then you are still ahead!!!! Don’t you see, nothing is ever for nothing.
