Subject: Work today
Morning, all - Lucille needs to have her brakes fixed
this morning, so I’m going to take advantage of having figured out how to log
in remotely and work from home.
I’m reachable by e-mail, text, phone, and earnest prayer.

I will attempt
the earnest prayer first.

Subject: RE: RE: Work Today
I have heard your prayer. And the answer is, ‘Yes – but not until sometime next
week. Maybe Wednesday-ish’
Now somebody make with the burnt goats

At first I
thought that said “make out with the burnt goats” and I thought WOW, he really
is taking on the role of cruel God wholeheartedly.

I'd like to think of myself as tough
but fair.

Okay, so let me
get this straight:
- · Making people burn the goats in your honor is tough but fair
- · Having people make out with the goats is where the line is crossed.

From: Me
To: Not Me
Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Work Today
Yes.
That is correct.

From: Not Me
To: Me

I’m glad we had
that established before I made out with a burnt goat.

Don’t make me smite you.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Not Me
To: Me
Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Work Today
I’m fairly
certain you will find good reason to smite me for something sooner or later
anyway.

From: Me
To: Not Me
Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Work Today
See, now that’s the kind of
pessimism that leads to being smote. Smitten. Smited...?
Dangit, this is why no one goes to church anymore.
