Holy Crap!

Mama,

I have a boyfriend! I wasn't sure at first, but Josh introduced me to some guy his dad works with as, "Sam, my girlfriend" so now I know. I have a boyfriend, I have a boyfriend! Ahem.

Alex refers to him as Josh Squash B'Gosh. As in Osh Kosh B'Gosh. Josh is jewish, and today when I was at his house his mom said, "Sam if you don't have any plans for Passover, we'd love for you to join us." So I called the only jewish fire family and totally panicked and now she is taking me into the city tomorrow to find some appropriate clothes for a Passover. I hope there are good things on sale.

Alex and Dani are mad at me for not getting them invited too, but I just can't. I tried to explain that when you get invited to something you can't ask if you can bring two extra people but they didn't want to hear it. They just don't want to be stuck with Aunt Elaine by themselves. I don't blame them.

If you hang out with any jewish people in heaven please ask them what I'm supposed to wear for Passover. All I know is jeans and a sweater or a jeans skirt and a sweater is not dressed up enough. Josh said "more dressed up than for a date, less dressed up than for a wedding." Which leaves a lot to the imagination. He also said to eat a light lunch, because there's a LOT of food and a LOT of wine.

I am kind of nervous. I will remember to say please and thank you and offer to help.

Please wish me good luck,
Sam

Sam- Josh got the dress code just right.

Take little servings, even of the things you like. It's not just lots of food, but it takes a long time to serve, and it may come out in lots of courses. Just when you think you're done, they clean up the plates and bring more. Remember, no milk is allowed with the meat, so if you are a milk drinker, switch to water.

It's an interesting tradition. You'll have fun and learn a lot. It's o.k. to ask questions, so do. Good luck, and congrats on having "a boyfriend."
