time to pray

In regards to yesterday's entry, I have good news and bad news. The good news is I found a temple to go to for services tonight for the beginning of Yom Kippur. It's about 2 miles from me and it looks nice from the outside. I called up and secured tickets for me and Marissa. I'm really happy she's coming with me because it means a lot to me and this is the sort of thing someone does when one loves another and I love it. So we'll be going to services tonight and atoning for our sins. That's the good news.

The bad news is I have to go to work tomorrow. Let me reiterate, I have to go to work tomorrow while fasting. No food or water or anything from dinner tonight until dinner tomorrow night. It's tough enough to deal with on a regular day but it's even worse if I have to go to work since I can't sleep through much of the day and I can't distract myself with video games or movies or TV. I would take the day off but I'm out of days off due to the wedding and I can't afford to take an unpaid day off so I'll be here at work suffering quietly.
