I slept well and long last night and got up too late to go for a walk. I did walk down to recycle cardboard and buy challah, though.

I taught 3 units of Berlitz lessons today: 9:00-9:45 and 10:00-11:30.

I took Me'ir to lunch at Il Pentolino today.

In the evening, I went over to a party that Me'ir hosted for the gay community in honor of Tu B'Av (the 15th of the month of Av), a minor holiday in honor of "love". It was nice, but, unfortunately, not many people showed up. I finally left at about midnight.

אב הרחמים, אנא משך חסדך עלינו ועל קרובינו האהובים. וזכנו ללכת בדרכי ישרים לפניך, דבקים בתורה ובמעשים טובים

Source of mercy, please continue Your loving care for us and for those close to us whom we love. And may we have the right to walk in honest ways before You, clinging to Torah and good deeds.
