Nun of the Above

Not That Mike The Other Mike

As she looks down upon the village from the tower of the Our Lady of the Blessed Hairball convent, Sister Mary Empanada reflects on the life she left behind.

Why did I do this again?

Luxurious picnics on the emerald lawns of old-money estates; women in flowing chiffon floating on the arms of handsome young men; champagne flowing like rivers at parties that lasted until the sunrise…

There must have been some reason.

Of course, the hangover afterward, those she wouldn’t miss.

    Thank you Mike for the gut-buster of a laugh I had reading this post. Kitty does look like a nun or maybe one of those old-fashioned Spanish ladies “Dona Maria Fatima Therese de Navarro y Martinez”
