Attractive coworker and fellow refugee from fundamentalist-Christianity, Kathy, hinted that as long as I persist in parading about with my long dark hair and beard than I’m sending out a mixed message to my potential dates regarding my “faith issues” and my relationship to the church. The way she said it was much funnier. I laughed. It’s good to have friends with whom you can share the deep things and find a kindred spirit; And then laugh because life is so odd sometimes. jbb

p.s. Sorry mom, she already kind’a has a boyfriend. jbb
