BAD sign

So my mom kept texting me Thursday and Friday to tell me to check the mail because there was a package coming from Texas.

I got a package from her last week but figured maybe it was just more sweet tarts, smarties (they make you smart!) and Starbucks gift cards (study diet of champs!).
Saturday night I got home from the library and checked the mail to find a small package in my mailbox.

The package was addressed to "[legally fabulous] and Elle Woods"
(yeah, being a kooky dog lady runs in the family)

In the package: Holy Water.
And a note:"this is for your mind and Elle's body. XO, mom"

I was like ohhh ok thanks mom... ?

Uhhh. WTF Do I do with Holy Water?!

So yesterday I'm texting with Just Lovely Katherine and I was like "yeahhh I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with it? I'm probably going to mix it with vodka and chug it."

Then I came home from the library tonight, and saw that Elle peed on the two things that were laying on my bed: my MPQ vol 2 book (bar exam practice questions for you non bar takers) and the holy water package. 
With Holy Water still inside.

That's a BAD sign if I've ever seen one.


(Dear God - I'm sorry about the vodka joke. I wouldn't REALLY have chugged the Holy Water. Oh and I'm also sorry for the  jokes I made in my head to myself during the reading about Sodom and Gomorrah at Mass on Saturday. Please don't strike me down. Xoxo, LF)

  1. I love this.

    My Mom used to always pack holy water with my things in college. I never quite knew where to put it.

    So cute of your Mom.

  2. Eh, obviously I'm a horrible Christian, but I'd probably put more stock in Elle's pee.

  5. Oh my gosh. Your post had me rolling on the floor laughing. I have seen these commercials on tv when I can't sleep and have always wondered what the heck you would do with these. So so funny.

  7. I mean, sometimes vodka needs a little holy water to even out, and vice versa with the holy water! I think the whole thing was a cleansing situation...sort of.
