Career Counseling

Went to the McPolack homestead this past weekend to watch the pets and the Babcia. Arrived just before noon on Friday; McMumsy and PolackPappy were closing down the pool for winter. As PP rushed about doing MM's bidding, MM approached me. She was carrying a 15 foot long wobbly metal pole. "Eyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeee knowwwwwwwwwwwwwww what you should do about getting a job," she said from beneath the hood of her yellow rain slicker, as she wobbled the pole in my face.

"What, McMumsy?"

"Go to church."

This again.

"You don't have to listen to what they say about women. I don't believe all that bullshit and Jesus doesn't either. Trust me. Plus, you can talk to Mary. Now, those Protestants, they don't like Mary. The Catholics are where it's at. Think about it."
