Godfather of two: part four

July 8, 2006

Thankfully I haven’t experienced any idiosyncracy regarding church service yet. In my shift last Sunday, extended by a half-hour thanks to some discrepancy in my calculation, I was assigned again to office work - which leads to my apologies, because after a week of pondering I haven’t gained a new insight.

The only interesting thing that probably happened was me finally seeing Evita after her collection duty. She was just standing there and we were both a bit surprised upon seeing each other. It was raining that Sunday, and it’s been gloomy enough for me to be even willing to work, the drowsiness from school work and the gloominess of the skies.

They’ve been too overcast for me recently.

I remember one of the secretaries telling me during my second week of church service. “Weather-weather lang yan,” she said, referring to the patches of jobs that could come. More people obviously arrive before and after the masses, sending in the envelopes, inquiring about schedules, or submitting baptism requirements, which usually happens from 09.00. In patches of rain I wondered whether everyone who comes in feel the gloominess - do they even feel lazy about their jobs?

Someone comes in and jokes, and everyone has a laugh.

Now there went my answers. As with every other thought I had, it’s in the community.
