Habanero Aversion Therapy

My favorite kitten, Weebl, wouldn't let me eat my lunch. He gets really pesky sometimes. So I gave him some habanero sauce. Does that make me a bad person?

Color me goyish

A correction: apparently, you talk to the rabbis first, then you go to the bath. It's a good thing i found this out now. I just hope the queen of israel (a crazy woman who almost made me cry and who almost made me call the police while i was working at a coffee shop) won't be there.

What to expect when you're expecting a bet din

This site about becoming jewish
tells you everything you need to know about converting. That's what I'm doing. First there's bathtime (a mikveh-- i was hoping that i might get to use the mikveh mobile i've seen around squirrel hill. you know, for the convenience.) Then, you get to put your clothes back on and explain to three rabbis why you want to be jewish so much. They might not believe you, so you have to be really serious and remember not to pick your nose or say anything about jesus, except that you don't think he's all that anymore.
