The Monday Morning Blessing
Where: Chez
Gunther
When: any
and every Monday morning
Warrior
Queen arises; sunlight seeps through the curtains and crashes into her eyes.
WQ: Damn!
It’s Monday! I hate Mondays!*
A sphere of
bright light appears in the room. A
fairy godmother-like creature (think Good Witch Glinda from The Wizard of
Oz) steps out of the light which fades and disappears.
Monday
Morning Fairy: Oh, Anne Marie, you mustn’t hate this day with such venom. It’s a new day with new opportunities to do
good things for all of mankind!
WQ: Eff
Mondays!
MMF: Oh
dear! Do you kiss your husband with
that potty mouth?
WQ: Mondays
suck!
MMF: Now, now! We must allow the day to go forward and present itself with all its
glorious promise.
WQ: Where’s
my Grumpy Cat shirt?
MMF: Oh Anne Marie, maybe Monday should promise to
chew you up and spit you out!
WQ: Everything about today sucks! Sucks, sucks, sucks.
MMF: You know, I could arrange for Judy Garland’s
house to fall on you!
WQ: You
suck!
MMF: No, you suck!
WQ: No, you
suck!
MMF: No, you…
Ad nauseum.
*Warrior
Queen’s dialogue is derived from actual quotes she has been known to utter at
Chez Gunther on any given Monday.

for reading. Next time: Warrior Queen
and Monday Morning Fairy wrestle in a vat of jello!)
