Awww, you are too sweet!! I did get the Roman reference, and I thank you for it.
And yes, I am now marginally happy!! I will be happier when it is posted and happier still when I get the next story!! ;) I'm greedy, what can I say?
And tell your lovely Jew thank you for making you write me more JOA. I really really adore this one. More each time I read it. This part has been grabbing at me, like a stripped down twig catches at you as you walk in the woods, snagging your sweater. I ADORE this.
She spent her days wandering around the marble halls, looking at squares and circles of colored glass that joined together to form pictures of a god she didn't know. She knew him as a big-bosomed woman wearing a hair net, an old man with a gang of dogs at his ankles, a red-haired little girl on a swing. A boy in a tan jacket with a cat-grin on his face and his hands in his pockets.
