About naphtalia
|
Who am I?
Naphtalia is my Hebrew name (my friends call me Talia.) My family calls me by my English name but as they're the only ones, it doesn't really matter.
I work in an office to pay bills. Happily when I leave work, I don't have to take work home with me....I could, but I don't have to.
I am a magician member of the Academy of Magical Arts. This is the organization that uses the Magic Castle in Hollywood as its clubhouse. For a time, I worked there as a manager, but now I've limited myself to being a member and playing there.
I wrote my review of the Magic Castle after my first visit there when I was just a guest. You can find that review at Magic Castle
I also work part time and a store that specializes in magic, novelties, theatrical supplies and costumes. I have begun reviewing products we carry there that might be of interest to the general public.
I'm a long time vegetarian. I found when I ate no flesh (nothing that had once had either parents or a face) I felt better. I don't really like eggs, but will have them if they're part of something (like chocolate cake, which is vegetarian, btw.) I do like milk products, though not plain milk. If I could find a way to be vegan and still have a social life, I would probably do that. My friends already find my being vegetarian difficult enough.
If you'd like a vegetarian look at some different restaurants, I've written reviews on the following places:
Ruth Chris's Steak House, La Casa Garcia, KFC , The Vegetarian Zone, Musso and Frank's Grill, El Indio's, Mr. Stox, Burger King.
I'm grew up Jewish. While living in Israel for a year, I found a synnagogue that allows women to be counted as part of a minyan and lets me wear my talit and tefillin. Thus, I can be a practicing Jew and a feminist. I grew up in a synnagogue in Anaheim.
For reviews on things Jewish, here are some of my reviews:
Jewish Humor, Mrs. Katz and Tush, A book on the Jewish view of Demons and Angels, Death and Dying in the Jewish Tradition, Gefilte Fish - The Movie, My 10 Favorite Jewish Movies, Circumcision.
I'm single, by choice....just not by my choice. I'm open to having that situation change. If you know anyone you think I should meet let me know.
I'm a BBW: Big, Beautiful Woman (a.k.a.Large and Lucious) I have more curves than the Lombard Street in San Francisco (and most of them dangerous). I don't worry about the tiny size four woman inside me trying to get out. I'm more worried about the size 40 woman outside who would like to get in. In truth, I would like to be a tiny little thing, but I am actually happy at the moment with who I am.
If you're interested in diet information, here's what I have to offer.
Diet Program How-To's , The Cabbage Soup Diet, The Grapefruit Diet.
"Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.">-- Mark Twain
If you're the type to believe that if at first you don't succeed you should try, try again - consider a sport other than skydiving.
