Sorry for your Loss Rich .

Sorry to hear the bad news Rich.

DanaC · 04-18-2011, 04:44 AM

So sorry Rich. I imagine the expectation of continuing with the ongoing religious observances and celebrations adds to the sense of the surreal right now.

Warm thoughts are with you, mate.

Having a really hard time being motivated to get my work done for this semester. I think some depression has creeped in.

DanaC · 04-20-2011, 04:55 PM

Oh me too kiddo, me too. Where the frig did my enthusiasm and capacity to focus go to? It's like I am physically incapable of making myself work. And when I do it's fragmented and nothing hangs together. Reading the books just makes my eyes want to close...

You are not alone m'dear. Recognising that it's depression is probably a good sign that you're on the way back up soon, at a guess.

Well, I just realized that I never turned in a proposal for my paper, thats an immediate half off the grade, so now I'm not even sure its worth writing the damn thing. I've been so distracted by my own self loathing. The paper is due tomorrow.

DanaC · 04-20-2011, 05:00 PM

Ouch. Fuck me, that's a sucker punch. How much of your final grade is the paper worth?

richlevy · 04-20-2011, 05:04 PM

Thanks for the messages.

The funeral is tomorrow, followed by an on-again off-again shivah schedule at my sisters house.

Sometimes members of the family will go out to dine together after a funeral, although this is not in accordance with any Jewish custom. Not much chance of that happening with Passover, since it's pretty much impossible to find a restaurant that even comes close to serving Passover meals outside of downtown Philly.

I'm going with my dad to services at my sister's synagogue on Friday night. Shivah is I think Thurs evening, Friday day, Saturday evening. This is according to the Rabbi.

Try and write it no matter what. It'd be a shame to fail the course by a couple of marks that you might have picked up by handing in the paper.

Can you ask for special consideration because of the things that've been happening in your life lately? I don't know what the rules are over there, but here you can often get that if you've had major health or relationship issues that've affected you.
