So, Do You Have Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia?

My husband accuses me all the time of using words that he thinks I make up. 99.99% of the time, I am just using a word that he never heard when he was skipping most of his high school classes. I have to admit, though, I would never be able to spell this one, let alone tell you what it meant.

Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia.

It is defined as the fear of the number 6-6-6.

06-06-06!!!! That's today!!!! (O.k., honey, if you are reading this, you can start shaking now.)

I can hardly wait to see what "lovely things" happen in the world today. I think there are a few towns that are pushing the envelope with The Almighty if you ask me.

Over here, today's "rapture index" is 157, meaning that it is "fasten your seat belts" time. Well, I am not a Premillinealist, but I do await the return of Christ, and at the rate this old world and its occupants' morality is deteriorating, I would not be surprised to see Him in the clouds any day now, though Jesus Himself said He does not know when that will be....


And there are still people who ask me why I homeschool?

So, I thought in keeping with the six theme today, I would give you six things I WON'T be doing today!

1. I won't be going to see "The Omen."
2. I won't be visiting the nurseries of area hospitals to see if any of the sweet little ones are born with the mark of the beast.
3. I won't be freaking out if my groceries, McDonald's Value Meal, or any other purchase totals $6.66 today.
4. I won't be a bit surprised if California breaks off and falls into the ocean, or worse, after the church of Satan "celebrates" a satanic high mass tonight. (How low can you go?)
5. I won't be buying any books that come out today or attending any heavy metal concerts of groups starting their tours today.
6. Come to think of it, I don't think I will be going out in public if I can help it today, because I am too afraid that somebody is going to get struck by lightning out of the clear blue sky, and I don't want to be anywhere around!

Finally, (and remember this is very tongue-in-cheek) if you can have a sense of humor about all this rot, check out someone's sense of humor:
