Am I prete?
Well, today I'm packing and panicking and getting ready for my eights days in Paris. (I'll still be blogging because there's a computer in the apartment where I'm staying. It just might be erratic.) I'm going with my parents for their 40th anniversary. Yes, you heard that right. For their 40th anniversary, they could have had anything in the world, and what they wanted more than ever to commemorate this romantic milestone was to bring their daughter with them to the most romantic city in the world. I'm sorry, but if that isn't the most Jewish thing in the world, I don't know what is.
Here are two good reasons to get out of the U.S. for a few days:
Robin Givens (pictured) pretends to be an expert on depression and Owen Wilson -- and FOX allows it
Headlines like this one: Mental health program faces bleak future

Dear Liz,
I don’t know “if that isn't the most Jewish thing in the world” but you certainly are fortunate to have loving parents. Like my wife and I and that of a number of our friends who also care much for their children and grandchildren what can be better than to share joyous occasions with our loved ones.
Maybe you’re kind of missing the fact that you’re blessed.
I wish your parents many, many more Happy Anniversaries and the ability to share and enjoy their “Simchas” with their loved ones.
Have a great time.
Warmly,
Herb

Enjoy your time in the "City of Lights". It has a little bit of Philly and then some.
For a small taste, see: http://www.flickr.com/photos/84423669@N00/525433387/in/set-72157600297647392/
If you get a chance, see a recital/concert at a small Church. It is an amazing experience. http://www.ampconcerts.com/
Enjoy.

"I'm sorry, but if that isn't the most Jewish thing in the world, I don't know what is."
This phrase is great! You should tell this story to Woody Allen and perhaps, in his next movie we find a couple travelling to Paris with their daughter!!! (and all the "everything in-betweens" needed)
Enjoy your stay and receive my best,
Raquel :)
