Unfortunately, I’ve had to change my plans for this evening. My recovery from sinus surgery last Friday has not gone to plan at all; the short of it is that I’m still feeling pretty lousy/not getting much sleep/etc. Consequently, I’m not going to the Tisha B’Av: The Rise and Fall of the Jews of Spain lecture at my (can I say this now?-maybe) temple [insert sad emoticon here]. However, I’ve included a bit of background readings on today’s remembrance. I’ll try & post some more tomorrow during the periods of time where I’m not feeling lousy.
