Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie
- Fr. Tom Fish
- I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

Cabin Fever
People around here have been up to no good!
I think I know who's behind it, but the thing is, nobody ever owns up to anything. I know it's not the parishioners or the church group, because they're not here at the rectory long enough to get into this kind of mischief. It reminds me of something about the devil and idleness. How about boredom? The old fork-ed tailed critter must be cranked up now!
As far as the litter box room is concerned, which, by the way is located off the kitchen toward the back--one heck of a place for it, the sign appeared the day after the snowstorm.
A cat notices a lot of things, especially at floor level. Look out, if the snow lasts any longer, you'll start seeing pin-ups by my duty station.
So, my furriends, as you're looking out the window, be sure to keep an eye out around the house. You never know when somebody tries curing cabin fever with something silly!
P.S. I'd like to know what the pope would say about the Vat-i-can, not to mention the liturd-gy!
Cheers and a toast by the fire,
Tom

Don't worry about the Pope and the Vati-can, I'm pretty sure he has his own bathroom!
We can't even get past "liturd-gy"! HAHAHAHA
Sam is laughing so hard that he's droolin' and I had to yell, "MOM, MOM, come look!" Now she's gaffawing like there's no tomorrow.

My precious, most lusted after, Tom...I don't know why I'm supposed to tell you this, because "I" took what you said very seriously (oh yeahhhh, babyyyy), but Mom seems to be having problems breathing now. She keeps snortin' this strange down-in-the-belly laugh. What's up with that? Doesn't she know real panting when she sees it?
Get the wine glasses out, I'm on my way ~~

MOL! Yes, Tom, the humans do tend to get a little batty when they get trapped inside for too long. We pray you get some warmer days real soon!
hee hee! We are "crack"-ing up!
I believe things did get a bit out of hand, but the sun was out, it was warmer and we had a great Super Bowl game, so we're all back to normal again.
One of the parishioners insists on having Jack hear his confession in the rectory tomorrow night. Sounds serious. I can't wait!
Oh I wonder what pope will say about Vat-i-can, too :-)
