Eh, that's all right. We weren't very good anyway--though better than last night--and some people did come, so I wasn't terribly lonely.
P.S. October 19 is my two-year Bat Mitz-versary. To celebrate, I am declaring it National Spell Your Name With A Q Day. Everyone who can will spell their name with a q. For example, my friend Lena Barkin will be Lena Barqin, or Barquin if she prefers. You can be Qit. If you have multiple possible Q substitutions, as in Katie Couric, use as many as you want (Qatie Qouriq). And if you don't have a letter in your name that can be replaced with the letter q, then stick it randomly into your name (Joe Smith=Joe Smiq, Qoe Smith, or Joe Sqith, to name a few possibilities). Or if you don't want to do that, then Q can be your new middle initial, as in Joe Q. Smith. Have fun, Qit!
