“THE BLOOD OF CHRIST!” Holy crap! This morning there were six “Host” ministers and only three “Cup” ministers. So I went up to be the fourth “wino”, which I did – to drink the remaining swill from the lips of mostly Asians/Vietnamese, who hopefully don’t have mononucleosis, tuberculosis, flu-like symptoms, stage-four cancer, herpes, canker-sores, colds, whatever.
Anyway, I saw Zenny go in the back/tabernacle/whatever and probably dump the swill into the sink. I wanted to follow her and found out WTF she did with her cup! But Elsa came up, saw my cup, and told me to drink it up, which I did with some slight hesistation.
No sooner after I’ve returned to the second pew at the break/middle part of the parish was I feeling moderately “woozy”. I slightly stuck out my tongue while the main pastor said the final blessing. I saw/sensed him “smiling” as if he knew I was feeling “uber good” from the nutty/grapey ALCOHOL!
That’s right! If I were pulled over for a DUI, I might NOT have passed. I wonder if there is an “excuse slip” for practicing my religious right to imbibe during “normal business” hours. My stomach was EMPTY because we usually don’t consume food ONE HOUR prior to receiving the “Host”/”Body of Christ”.
That is why I am adamant to have TPTB and pal find me a reasonable morning gig; so that I won’t have to participate in the MOSTLY old timers daily attendance. I cannot believe that I volunteered to the Lawd Gawd’s “calling”. I’m NOT even a confirmed RCC! OMG! Am I breaking/violating any code/codex/rule/regulation/law/whatever for not being fully a member of the RCC?
Oh, and this morning we saw Chuck. This was the second time this month of December we saw him in a rare attendance; since his wife took off to the PI after the fund-raising gig for the typhoon victims over the Thanksgiving holidays. I think he is more “religious’ than her because she kinda/sorta goes overboard with her religious fanaticism.
