My Horrible Day - Conclusion

[Jacob's Ladder]

In my best King James English:

Yea, my tears runneth down my cheeks in anguish and my tears shed tears of their own.

I went to picketh up my car from the repair shop, and the total amount was rendered unto me.

Yea, as mine eyes gazed upon the total amount, the food I consumed earlier almost escaped my bowels (selah).

My feet had nigh slipped from under me had I not held onto the counter.

The amount was $200 higher than estimated.

After I saw the bill, I could not hold my tongue.

In the anguish of my spirit I spoke.

I complained in the bitterness of my soul.

I shall not pay an additional $200.00, and it was granted unto me.

In my mind I said, Lord, turn your gaze that I may take comfort a little.

Before I go whence I shall not return.

To a land of murk and gloom.

A land of deepest night.

Full of chaos and the shadow of death.

Where the light is as darkness.



I then snapped out of it, pulled out my American Express and paid a $1,400 bill.
