19th Six Sentence Sunday - Uncle Walt's Church

From Bride of the Living Dead, newly engaged to Oscar, Daria finds herself, with her mother and sister, meeting with Oscar's sisters and conservative mother, Deb, to start to plan the wedding:

            "I can call your Uncle Walt if you’d like him to officiate," Mom turned hopefully to me. It was my decision, hmmm that was a new experience.
            "That would be great, Mom, if you think he can get away, but I’d better ask Oscar first." I didn’t want to disappoint her, and I was starting to get enthusiastic about seeing Deb’s reaction to meeting Uncle Walt and learning that the church he founded was the Intergalactic Church of Star-Seeded Cosmic Consciousness. Although you couldn’t really appreciate his vision without seeing the large, cleared landing strip he maintained next to it for space ships that might feel called upon to attend services.
            Deb didn’t strike me as the psychic type, but I think she may have just begun to realize that, by the sheer power of passion, I could probably entice her son to accept any sort of minister or ceremony I chose, up to and including nude fertility dancing.

  15. Thanks everyone for visiting & commenting!

    Thanks Xakara, Gem, Graylin, JoAnne & wearegoingonawitchhunt! Compared to nude fertility dancing, Uncle Walt's church may look rather tame--though eccentric enough to scare Deb!

    Gayle, thanks, not sure if Tom Cruise has attended services but I hear he's a pilot and the landing strip IS available 24/7!

    Kathleen & Sassyspeaks, thanks! Uncle Walt's church is conveniently located near Area 51 in Nevada for aliens who are counting their frequent earth flyer miles!

    Jessica, Trish. Marie & Bree, thanks for commenting and laughing, that always makes my day!

    Jessica K, the mother-in-law to be is not about to give up her son without a struggle!

    romancingalix, Carolyn, Sarah, Sam & murdersandmysteries thanks for visiting and commenting!
