We're on a mission from God.
Oct. 17th, 2006 10:44 pmSaturday night, I was out waiting for a movie with
kittenpants and
triadruid, and in the Culver's Custard, where we were joyously partaking of some sundaes, it came to pass that someone said something about the Blues Brothers movie. And
kittenpants says, "We should go on a mission from God. Road trip, mission from God. It's a great idea."
Okay, but how does one get a mission from God? Where would we go? What would we do? According to
kittenpants, in order to qualify as a Mission From God Road Trip, you have to have a ridiculous yet worthwhile charitable goal. There might be other qualifications, but I'm not sure. I've never been on a mission from God, you know.
But apparently now is the time: This is my horoscope from Free Will Astrology for the week:
"LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I was sitting in San Francisco's Cafe Gratitude, meditating on your horoscope. In my notebook I'd doodled a giant hand reaching down to earth from the clouds. It was holding a silver platter that bore a book whose title was "Fresh Instructions." This gift was being offered to a half-lion, half-human creature that represented you. Shortly after I finished this drawing, a woman came through the front door of the restaurant and sat at a nearby table. Her t-shirt had a message that was the perfect caption for the image I'd made: "Maybe God has bigger plans for you than you have for yourself."
So, Internet, got any suggestions/divinations/requirements?
EDIT:
fionnabhar reminds me of the other aspect of this question, which we did address at the time, but which I neglected to document: Which god? We've got an absolute load of gods for the household, and that's not even counting gods we might agree to hire out to. I'm keeping my brain open.
