i'll have a little jesus christ with my ice cubes, please

i woke up yesterday morning to find the jew sitting at the kitchen table looking very perplexed. what happened, jew? i would have asked if she didn't immediately say "you missed the jehovah witnesses."

now, me and the ruskie grew up in good ol' california where saturday mornings are spent solely hiding out from these witnesses. they knock on your door and mom screams "husssssssh....don't let them know we're home." even the "no soliciting" signs won't detract them. as such, if they had rang our little door bell when one of us had been in the area we would have known to not respond.

the jew, she did not know this. she answered the door. and still, she didn't know what or who they were. apparently, after engaging them in conversation she was handed a pamphlet and was asked if she was prepared to accept jesus christ as her lord and savior. being jewish and all, the jew did not know how to respond. she took the pamphlet. they went on their way (they're much less persistent than those damn mormons--have i got a story on that one).

even however many minutes after they left she continued to wear that "wtf?" look that she has clearly perfected over the years (the ruskie and i have them too, but usually in reference specifically to the jew).

on our freezer door now sits a pamphlet asking us when we're ready to accept jesus christ as our personal lord and savior. it sits above the magnetic white board we have to write notes on (in case the constant IMing, texting, and oh, living together doesn't afford us enough communication). on the board it says "in case anyone is interested :)" written by the jew. not one to be out done, i had to respond:

"I LOVES ME SOME JESUS"

what? we were all going to hell before they came a'knockin....
