I guess that was a bit opaque.

Humor is all about timing. It was humorous from my perspective, having just read the posts.


Trust me it would have been a riot.

I read, I understood completely from the first post! I guess it helps that it was my friend who told me that. The whole thing is I would occasionally buy one lottery ticket, I said "if God wants me to win the lottery, I'll do it on one ticket". She said "If God wants me to win, I'll find a ticket laying on the sidewalk". I can certainly see the connection to "I wonder if God wants me to ever marry" and "I guess if he does, you'll find your future wife laying on the sidewalk".

I see it because I was "there". Paul probably was involved in a different conversation on the thread.

PS, I am not here having logged off an hour ago to go to bed. :) Just checking back.

So without being too personal, what makes you feel that way?

Is it the waiting?

I do not think it is God that I am waiting on. I think it is a combination of time and place with circumstance and two people seeing clearly at the identical moment what is before them.

As if that wasn't hard enough to coordinate. It would keep God busy, I think.

God:(OVER THERE OVERTHERE. LOOK. say SOOMMETHINNGG!!)
Me: (Hm, read, read, read... --think think: groceries; read read read; --think: pay the rent and make sure I don't forget to price Bionicles for the birthday party...Read. read...)
Him: Wax the car, wax the car... ---think think: sure is boring out here. I wonder what is on T.V...?)

Death of a perfect happy ending.
