A Day in the Life of a Cirran Bard

3. Pm Goddess errands

Out of the goodness of her heart the Goddess released me from the Therapy Clinic. Well that, and she needed someone to run some errands for her. (So nice to be loved.)

GC: more sarcasm? You think just because you put it in parenthesis I can't read it?

MM: No Goddess.

GC: Then why Melissa?

MM: Why the Sarcasm or why the parenthesis?

GC: ((blank stare))

MM: It was an aside. Just a little comment that...

GC: An aside? To whom?!

MM: To all the people reading this.

GC: For what purpose?

MM: For what purpose are they reading this or why the aside?

GC: ((blank stare))

MM: They seem to enj...((suddenly realize I am about to get everyone on the list in serious trouble))

GC: They seem to what?

MM: ((blank mind, blank mind))

GC: Don't make me drag it out of you, bard.

MM: ((blurt out)) enjoy it, they seem to enjoy the sarcasm. ((sorry friends there is no loyalty amongst Cirrans when the Goddess demands otherwise))

GC: At my expense? I think you must be mistaken. Obviously you didn't spend enough time at the Therapy Clinic.

MM: But Goddess...

GC: ((holds up a dismissive hand)) Really Melissa, this is a new low for you. Trying to get your friends in trouble like that. Tsk tsk tsk ((shaking her head in disbelief)) We'll talk about it later. Right now I have a few chores for you.

Reaching for a scroll I began to quickly write down the list of chores which magically appear in my mind. I had to write fast because the Goddess doesn't like to send written messages, even if they are hallucinogenic mind projections. (She is looking for a way to have me scribe the messages that she sends in this manner...so far no luck.)


    THE LIST

  1. Pandora's box of chocolates

    1. Two Jumbo sized "Little Hercules" one Orange and one Raspberry
    2. Four Destroyer of Nations Hollow Chocolates...only I want solid!
    3. Wax Lips, as many as they have left and more.

  2. Prepare a dinner party
    1. Send out invitations, individually hand scribed...don't go to Kinkos!
    2. Make dinner befitting a Goddess.
    3. For mysake lose the Joxer wear before you come.

  3. I dropped a needle in the haystack over at the stables...find it!

  4. I dropped Gene somewhere in Cyberspace..find him.

  5. I am short on dinars. Go to Hudson City Bank and make a withdraw in my name. I am entrusting you with my ATM card, don't lose it. Bring me a copy of all transactions signed and dated by Mich the Bank President. If Mich is not there, find him.

  6. There is no number six, take a second and rest. More of that benevolent Goddess thing.

  7. I want that grey M&M.

  8. Nothing good is on TV tonight. Rent a movie. Clash of the Titans, Jason and the Argonauts, or Legend, but re-edit so the Gods win.

  9. My apartment could stand a good cleaning. Hint. Hint.

  10. Meet me over at the Warrior Training Academy, I am thinking about taking up pressure points and I need someone to practice on, er I mean with, oh who am I kidding, I mean on.

Love, Callisto (kiss kiss)



MM: Very funny Goddess.

GC: ((ruffles my hair)) See, I can play too. ((disappears))
