Newly minted rabbi. Lover of people, except when it's time to curl up with a good book and a hot drink.

@DBashIdeas The real question is: who added "sheyibaneh beit hamikdash" onto it, and when?

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

@benzgreenfield We use a different luach (specific to Conservative shuls), but I literally emailed our minyan leaders today to say, "come pick up your beautifully salmon-colored 5783 luach!"

@ashirak Glad you made it through; hope it’s a great convention!

@rabbimarkiz A stranger life when people do this on a Monday

@baloneyspumoni @Rosejeremys waking me is the only reason that this is not my life every single week

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

@RutiRegan Not really. There are lots of contexts where my first name is 100% appropriate, but if we’re being formal enough to use titles, use the right one.

Went to the @RabbiAssembly website to find a teshuvah and discovered that their 5779 Pesach Guide is up. It’s a great resource but I WAS NOT READY FOR THIS.

Ladies at the gym are wishing each other a Shana Tova wow I love Beachwood

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

@__sassinaglass They’re going to need to stop that before I show up.

My husband’s secret Santa at work left him gelt and a card that says “zos hanukkah sameach.” If I didn’t know that 100% of his coworkers aren’t Jewish, I’d have thought that this one was pretty frum.

Front Office Happenings:
A college student called to ask about attending weekday minyan for a class assignment. Kudos to the smart professor who assigned minyan rather than Shabbat services so the students can take notes

Faith in humanity moment of the day: I was running for the bus, and some teens who had just gotten off saw me and ran and yelled for the driver to wait for me. He did, and we both smiled and laughed as I got on the bus. Thanks, kids.

@__sassinaglass 95% of the reason that I changed my name. The remaining 5% is that Rabbi Rose sounds so good.

@TweetsofTorah @RabbiJeremyFine @rebsteve @RabbiWolpe @RabbiDavidBaum @URJPresident @JonahGeffen @RabbiBenHerman @TweetedTalmud @Rabbi_Sykes @rjherber @TheRaDR @rabbidan @JenLader I’d prefer buy your rabbi a COFFEE day

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

@Ynadiv But were there any manuscript variants?

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

I can tell that the High Holidays are close because...
1. Family services are planned 2. Sermons are mostly written 3. There are kugels in the freezer 4. I have my annual high holiday head cold. #whatrabbisdo #busiesttimeoftheyear #elulproblems #shanahtovah

Update: apparently the anniversary is tomorrow. So I got to embarrass myself anyway.

[Paula Rose @p_b_rose]

Real superheroes are people who email you at 6:15am wishing you a happy anniversary, so that you get to save face and not forget that it’s your anniversary. Find yourself some people like these. #thanksmarkandandrea #3years
