In Pirkei Avos 4:1 (Ethics of our Fathers) we learn Eizehu ashir hasameach b'chelko - Who is wealthy? One who is happy with his lot. I have been blessed with 30 years of a pretty good lot! In trying to decide what to name this blog, which will be a chronicle of things that make me happy, I landed on Sameach b'chelko for this very reason!

Basically I'm Famous Now

I'll be honest (I usually am). I'm not exactly sure who Justin Bieber is, what he sings, why teenage girls think his crazy hair is something to be excited about, or whether or not he has a Disney tv show, but I DO know that he's uber-famous. So, when given the opportunity to try on his shoe, of course I jumped at it.

Was this the first time I had worn a famous person's shoe? Yes. Was this the first time I wore an ugly purple high top with strange velcro closures and a tweenage boy's signature? Yes. Was this the first time I felt like I needed to Purell my foot in the middle of a workday? No, definitely not.

Will it be the last? Time will tell...
