Ces: Knock! Knock!
Renee: Who’s there?
Ces: Love.
Renee: Love who?
Ces: Love bird!
Renee: Oh it’s you!
Ces: Yes it’s me.
Renee: Honest to God Ces, you are a kook! You need a spanking.
Ces: Please, please spank me!
Renee: I see that I do not need to spank you because it will not be a punishment but a gift.
Ces: I have a gift for you. Here it is. I hope you like it.
Yesterday I had a very difficult day. It’s one of those days when I am confident that things will work and my testing goes smoothly. I made a change, a small change to a massive rule module that has been my life, my bread and butter for the past six months. It has over 1,600 lines. Some items are hard-coded and it is like searching for a needle in a haystack. I go through several eyeglasses switches, and eye lubricants to augment my prescribed ophthalmic emulsion. My eyes become very dry. I have abdominal pains from stress and anxiety and the hairs on the right side of my head have turned grey. Yesterday I came to work wearing two different shoes, black on the left and brown on the right. Seems like an awful situation. I am not complaining because I love my work. I am also not complaining because there is nothing to complain about. For starters, the flying objects in my stomach are butterflies, they are not bats.
My beloved friend Renee has bats. She is not well, she has great discomfort, yet unless she says so, you would never know. She has conditions. Aside from cancer, she has this condition characterized by great enthusiasm for life; the ability to give wise counsel, to listen, to make merry, to cuss, characterized by massive doses of honesty and the great capacity to love.
I am dedicating my rule module to Renee. I am dedicating my Christmas celebration to Renee. I am dedicating this drawing to Renee. Look very closely my dearest sisterfriend. Each miniature squiggle was borne with a prayer of hope for your well-being and comfort; each line was borne with a prayer of thanks for the happiness and joy you give me; the shaded spaces were borne with a peace offering to drive the bats away.
I brought along my lovebird friends, perched on your crown. I do not want you to get sick from my singing so I brought along my friends so they can drown me out and together we sing a melody of love. Merry Christmas, my dearest friend.
