Vignette 18

OC really likes me now. This is a new development.

Tonight i was on the stairs while he was just below me. He spotted me in black socks, excitably giggled and screamed, reached out and grabbed my feet with both hands.

Me and W exchanged a look of "WTF?" then burst out laughing.

"He's mistaken you for Jesus!" Proclaimed W.

"What's the reference?" I asked.

"The prostitute!" Replied W.

"Mary Magdalene?" I pursued.

"Sounds right," said W. "She washed Jesus' feet and her sins were forgiven!"

"You realize you've just likened your son to a whore!" I cracked up. "She was cleansed, huh? All her STD's were instantaneously cured?"

"That was not explicit in the Bible," said W.
