I have finished my bacon and eggs and am on my second cup of coffee. I'll be off to Guitar Center in about half-an-hour.
Kitty is fed and is sunning herself on the balcony. I don't have any music on. It is chilly out, but I see dry pavement.
Shabbat Shalom for those of you who enjoy the Sabbath on Saturday. Did you know that observant Jews don't do anything involving man-made technology on the Sabbath? Technically they are not supposed to play man-made musical instruments on this day. I was clueless about this until I worked for a few years at a "Conservative" Synagogue in Berkeley. Live and learn.
Anyway, I hope you have a good Saturday. I may even take another March Shower before I take off.
Oh, I'll attach a bit of humor about the Sabbath. I find it hilarious, but I wonder if you have to be American to "get it." If you watch it, let me know what you think. Warning: Some foul language involved.

No man-made tech on the Sabbath? I don't think I could be a Jew then.
I had an omelet for my dinner last night. Just coffee and some banana bread for breakfast this morning.
Have a good day.

@TheHorse ......Perhaps so. I find their religion very interesting.

I had a great lunch for breakfast, thank you. I had to drop off some covid medicine at my brother’s house (threw it from the road ).

Good to be away from all man made technology for a day. It would be a good detoxification for all senses. But I am sure that it would not be easy for most.
Kitty looks beautiful. She has lovely eyes.

Yes, I know very well that observant Jews don't do anything involving man-made technology on the Sabbath. My father in law did not even use the elevator. I think to remember something also about playing man-made musical instruments.
We had banana bread and coffee for breakfast.

It's nice you have experience working at a Jewish synagogue.
Bacon and eggs sounds delicious.
I ate bread and tea.
I'll avoid the foul language in the link you shared.
