The Peanut Chronicles

That's me in the corner...

This morning Bear and I got into a huge argument. Yes, it was one of those BIG ones. Not the bickering we do every once and awhile but the BIG one. And, believe it or not it was over taking Nut to… Church.

Come again?

Church?

You the one of no faith?

Yeah… the argument was over church. And it’s not in anyways what most people would think. I was the one saying that it’s Easter and we nee d to go to mass.

WHAT??!

Yeah, me, not him. He was arguing that I didn’t give him enough time to schedule it and why should we go? Bullshit, he knew for weeks. I put it on his palm pilot. I reminded him every day for the last week. And now he “magically” has a student? I don’t think so!

Why church and why Peanut? Many reasons that we are keeping private. Many reasons we are not (when your wife is beginning to miscarry a baby that you never thought you could have, when you are told your shots of conceiving are about 1 to 2 percent, when your wife has complications with the baby and the delivery but 6 weeks later is doing great…. Well, you make a few deals with God.)

Bear wants to squelch on his deal for the American Dream of making money. Here’s the breakdown and the way that I see it: if you believe Muhammad is your profit, excellent. If you want to find enlightenment under the tree with Buddha, many blessing to you. If you believe this planet and world couldn't exist without a mother, blessed be. If you want to let things go with the flow, join the club (and pooh bear for that matter). If you think the world came about through the big bang and there is no god, more power to ya. If you think there is something out there guiding everyone but you aren’t really sure what, enjoy (This is where I fall into by the way). If you think evil alien overloads came down to the earth before time and…. No sorry, I can’t jive with Scientology. Call me what ever name you want here____________. If you think Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior, oklie dokely to you.

But if you make a bargain with your god, and then try to squelch on it? I pity you.

By the way, we are going to mass.
