I'm famous!
Okay, so maybe famous is exaggerating a bit. But I did just get this email from Sylvia, of Voices of Orthodox Women (www.vow.org):
Actually, I didn't think my article was all that excellent, to be quite honest. It was good enough, but on re-reading even just the introduction this morning, there were some things that I would dearly love to go back and change. But, hey, if it's making a difference, that's what matters. Who cares if there were some wording issues? God is bigger than diction.
*happy dance*

California and Washington? Are you serious? They think my work is excellent? And that article was posted only this morning! That's amazing! That's fantastic! Huzzah for God! *happy dance* *pause to catch my breath* *more happy dance*Hi Brittany,Just a note to let you know I've received several e-mails from California and Washington telling me they think your article is excellent. I thought you'd like to know.Sylvia

That is freakin' weird. No wonder I was so offended when one of my friends (from whom I've drifted quite considerably) tried to say that paganism was somehow like Christianity...*shrug*. And Ah-main instead of Amen? I agree with you that it's total nonsense. There are plenty of other ways to say it. If they don't want to say "Amen", they could at least use a different pronunciation that's still widely acceptable, like the Orthodox (or maybe Reform, I dunno, I'd have to ask my roommate) Hebrew word - "Omayn".
Either way, I liked the article. Good to hear others did, too. Keep on truckin', if you feel like you need to do another article.
Congrats again.
