Mazel Tov!

Talking to my sister yesterday, I came upon the idea of what I want to do for my birthday... in 6 months.

Bat Mitzvah-style 21st birthday. Now, granted, a bat mitzvah usually occurs earlier in a girl's life, around the time when her family considers her officially a woman, but seeing as how I'm not inherently Jewish, I'm throwing myself a bat mitzvah anyway at whatever age I choose. I jokingly have always told everyone that I believe there is a 40-year-old Jewish woman who lives inside of me- named Ester- and I think she'd like this. My plan, then, is the following:

1. Rent a synogogue. I call it "rent-a-gogue."
2. Theme colors are blue and white.
3. Bring on the Manishevitz! I like wine and I like to party, so why not combine the two and celebrate my birthday!
4. Subtract the Torah, I just want the party that would inevitably come afterward.

Now, I know it's sick, twisted, and completely disrespectful to those who adhere to the Hebrew faith, but I want everyone to yell Mazel Tov when it's my birthday, dammit! Your thoughts and contributions are greatly appreciated. Get planning, people.

Cheers,
Ennui
