Riding Goats in the Desert

goats, God, gypsies, jehova's witness, fornication

After four weekly chatting sessions with Jehovah's Witness solicitors, I hope it's finally over.

After four weekly chatting sessions with Jehovah's Witness solicitors, I hope it's finally over. The first week, I was weeding around garden and two elderly ladies drove up and asked why I wasn't out and about in the great weather. They were so sweet I talked freely.

Exactly a week later they came back and mentioned that my house was very hard to find. Thinking this might be a way out of this bible-school situation I hinted at my desire for privacy, "That's exactly why I live here," I said. Obviously it wasn't enough as one came back the following week with her husband while I was in the shower. I said it was a bad time, inconvenient, yada yada, but I let them in. Why do I do this?

We sat and talked about God but then the nice old man turned to some page in his bible that lists "fornication" as forbidden for humans and kept on reading about a whole litany of sins. I had to stop him and said somthing like, "Go back to that fornication thing; that's crazy! How are you supposed to procreate? The lady smiled; I thought she might laugh. Then I said that the First Testament was written by men for men and then changed through the ages to control women.

I thought we had a good talk but they didn't return this week, thank God. Just the same, I thought they were coming at 11AM as usual and the night before dreamed I was riding a goat somewhere in the ancient Egypt! Some gypsies had some kind of concession of events and one of their goats got loose. I ran after it, and jumped on to ride it back to the gypsies. The goat jig-jagged all over the place and randomly jumped pretty high making it really hard to stay on, but I did, and returned the creature to it's owners. Actually, the goat brought me back and dumped me in the sand and rocks.

I've dreamed about riding horses and flying small craft but riding a goat is not something I want to do again, not even in a dream. Anyway, bad dreams or not, I know is that I have to be more firm about letting any of them into my house again.

you're a fair person.
they've had their chance.

the even spoiled their second chance with me.
two times i spend some time to realy know them.
maybe the first time i found two green ones.
but the second time it was more worthless.
