She woke up and her first thought was "I want to start a revolution!" Who doesn't? Ok, pick just one question and find the answer. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? "Please brain, be serious for a minute" she thought, wrinkling her forehead. It reminds her of a billboard sign she read while driving through the countryside of Wisconsin. It read - "God is the Answer. What is the question?" One thought came to mind - "who do you rely on to be there for you that seems to disappoint quite often?" There's your question.
How different things would be if God had a personal assistant. The backbone of every operation. At least there is a Professional Admin Day to thank these men and women for all their hard effort. Anyhow, at least if God had an admin assistant, he would know where to get a good box lunch with a big fat half pickle.
This leads her into another train of thought. This sure ain't the polar express! She thinks back when she was young - when she was listening to Like a Virgin before she even knew what a virgin was. She went to Catholic school. The girls all had to wear the ugliest jumpers. They were navy blue and the shirts all had to be white button down long sleeve shirts. She was at that age where personal style was so important to development. She tried to be different - to stand out - and in the process she was ridiculed by the other girls. Especially Kristin with her long blonde beautiful hair. And she was even nice enough to invite Kristin to her roller skating party. Kristin didn't show. Last she saw Kristin was in the bar. Kristin was behind the bar - quite pregnant - serving her for the night. Imagine that!
She didn't have a lot of fond memories of Catholic school. Except for the rosary - it smelled so sweet of roses. Father Leo gave it to her. Oh, and of course the crush she had on Father Dan.
At any rate, there would be no revolution today.....
