About Me

My photo
Should I NOT wear a tutu in my thirties or admit that on (not so) rare occassions I eat frosting with a spoon? Should I NOT dress up in Christmas decorations and burst into the CEO's office looking like a reject from Whoville to wish her a Merry Christmas... or toast life with a purple polka dotted champagne glass (filled with orange juice) before 9 am in the office? Maybe I shouldn't but I like to think that it's part of my charm!

Waffles, Spaghetti & the Anti-Christ!

*Please note - the thoughts below are not nor were they intended to be theologically sound. Neither my theology professors nor my brother will be pleased but hopefully they will be mildly amused!*

I read a book once called Men are like Waffles & Women are like Spaghetti.  The premise of the book was pretty simple.  It's basically Mars & Venus meets the grocery store.  Men, the book said, are like waffles in that they compartmentalize everything.  Women are like spaghetti.  All of our thoughts touch and connect to all of our other thoughts.  Basically it is very easy for us to live in a stream of consciousness.  I wish I could say that it wasn't true. That my thoughts are not only logical but completely focused.  I almost had myself convinced that this *might* be true... when I found myself wondering this week WHO was going to give birth to the Anti-Christ. 


Strange question, I know (especially this time of the year) but can you honestly say you have NEVER wondered?! Even odder than the question, is the thought process that lead there.  You see... what had happened was... I had a crazy week complete with atypical migraines.  Atypical in that sometimes I had a headache and sometimes I had other migraine like symptoms.  The most severe - nausea.  I felt so sick every day this week at precisely 11 am that I honestly thought if I didn't know better... I would think I was pregnant.  Since I am certain that there was only one immaculate conception and virgin birth planned (and yes I still have my V-card.... I was upgraded to a platinum membership a few years ago) I knew that wasn't the case UNLESS I was about to give birth to the Anti-Christ... which got me thinking... who would his mother be?  Did she make a pact with the devil? Did she know that the child she carried and raised would rule the world and usher in the Apocalypse?   I suddenly had a very strange version of "Mary, did you know?" running through my mind... all because I had an migraine!
