Tonight was like any normal night, the last customer left an hour and a half ago and the halls are crystal clean. You could eat off them, if there was food.
About 4 minutes ago, my Lobby Assistant replicated her dinner to see her French Pea Soup explode in her face. It was quite comical really. The not so funny part was the strange lack of food for me. I was up since 4, finally had to face the music with that auditor.
The auditor stood 6 feet tall, 7 inches less then me, and was determined to see one flaw with the EGT filed taxes this year. He had me pull up every last invoice and receipt for this year. Do you know how many there were? Thousands... Upon Hundreds of Thousands...
Needless to say when Justin returned to get food, and the replicator exploded, I was not a very happy man. So I asked LA to join me for some good old fashion steak and eggs. She was happy to comply, for as long as the check said "EGT" and not "LA."
The clock swung hazily over itself and slowly I passed into sleep. LA, being punctual, was at the Old Kennethe Buffet on Main Street waiting for me to show. 15 Minutes. 25 Minutes. 35 Minutes... until finally she was so hungry she ordered take out and grabbed her keys.
LA pulled into the company parking lot, just as a gasoline house fell from the sky, dousing her car in alien excrement. The house missed the connection with the EGT recycler, which converts the excrement into gasoline and sends it back to the above hovering ship. She could have stopped, but no she did not!
She leaped over fireballs falling from the now broken security enhancement Sealfy set up, ran pass broken windows, and climbed the elevator shaft which had smashed the windows and broke the security enhancement.
Finally she strolled into my office, to catch me lying on the floor next to my fireplace. She called out gently, 'Justin. Wake up... Boy, if you don't wake up I'm...'
'Oh, hi LA. What happened?' As I noticed the burns and singed clothing.
'Nothing, here.' Hands me a bag of food, 'let us eat, I know you need food.'
'Thanks LA, my best part of the day. Umm wheres the steak sauce?' LA's face changes, 'Boy I left it in the car.' She runs down the hallway, past the elevator, through fire only to here my self scream: 'No, wait! Its right here.' Cue the scream, 'EGT MAN!'
---- Words of Encouragement
Love is something that goes beyond the occasional fireball. John 3:16 says that for God so loved the world that he gave his only son... so we would not perish but have, Everlasting Life. So next time when your husband or wife asks for food, remember what LA did for simple steak and eggs for her fictions boss.
