Here is the prompt for the writing comm. It's from Once Upon a Time:
Water is a very powerful thing. Cultures as old as time have worshipped it. It flows throughout all lands connecting the entire world. If anything had mystical properties, if anything had magic, well, I say it’d be water.
I'm listening to The Abstinence Teacher by Tom Perotta and this line just hit me like a ton of bricks. I thought it was hilarious. Context: the guy is a recovering addict and a born again Christian (Christ has helped him stay clean). The first person is complaining that there are no men and the person she's talking to says "someone called you at 11pm" and she says:
“What difference does it make? He’s a drunk married Christian.”
“Nobody’s perfect.” Tom Perotta The Abstinence Teacher
I'm surviving the weekend. Friends are about to show up on my doorstep, so I probably won't be online much for a while:D Hope you are having a lovely weekend.
