The ending of a working day is here

Today's been better than the day before.
The client's happy (or, at least, not mad)
so I've been documenting code.
      That verse?
There is a church in Malden where my friend
the Reverend (for all you Carleton folks:
the shortest graduate in '96)
is currently associate pastor. For
the Christmas season, they put on a fair
where charities etc. sell gifts.
Among the items on display there was
a silent auction to provide a verse
on which the Rev would preach a sermon. So
of course I entered, and I even won!
It took me several months to pick a verse,
The 46th in chapter 6 of Luke.
Last weekend it was preached; I couldn't go.
But I did get a copy, and it's great!
It's very fire-and-brimstone-y, for which
I bear the blame. (Which is hilarious.)
The text itself, however, is instead
inspiring. I am not, as you should know,
by any means a Christian, but I do
believe in Christian values, not the ones
that hypocrites call "fundamentalist",
but those that Jesus seems to have observed.

How serious I am! Tonight, we clean
and do some laundry, so that we can host
a Foo this weekend. In a day the house
will start to fill with people playing games.
Good night, and have a pleasant afternoon!
