power

for some reason, sisko wants me to write about power. or at least, influence.

hee hee hee. she doesn't really, but i like to deliberately misinterpret people.

however, it is an interesting topic.

today, for example, i am wearing my "power" suit. it is black and of some sort of parachute-like material (and i haven't fit into it for several years, which is a nice added bonus, but which is beside the present point). the jacket has a zipper instead of buttons up the front. the skirt is longish (just to the knees) and i am wearing the patent leather black pointy shoes that camobunny dislikes. i am wearing a thin, dark pink (hmm, maybe dark coral?) sweater underneath. the overall effect is sleek, sharp, and a bit military. edgy. i like it.

so the whole point of the power suit today is that i will be addressing the chamber of commerce of the town of my center of business. (this is a slightly scary prospect. i am quite good at public speaking but i get really nervous beforehand. i mean, really very quite extremely nervous. sweaty palms, racing heart, all that. not so fun) and because i am young, and blonde, and somewhat buxom, wearing such a suit makes me seem a bit more professional and like someone you should take seriously. especially on matters pertaining to life-saving blood and blood products. ah yes, the favorite topic for lunchtime addresses.

so. the thing about power, is that we should use it for good, not evil. eeveel.

  • Interestingly, the topic of this Sunday's sermon was Nebuchadnezzar and how he lost his mind and became homeless for five years and why? Because he used his power for evil, and not good. Only when he looked to Heaven and acknowledged that his power came from Up There did he regain his sanity and his realm and no doubt also hordes of tantalizing concubines although this, to my recollection, is not mentioned in the text.

  • the ones that i dislike? or the ones with the bow that i think would not be a good choice for me but are cute nonetheless?

  • ac: and i think, even though we are not big mighty kings, we have power too, and will be held accountable for our use thereof some day. and also, i think one of my future topics might be hordes of tantalizing concubines.

    cb: the ones your dislike. the bow off of one of the other ones has disappeared, and i am unsure how to proceed with them.
