It’s a seasonal hazard — you decide to stop by church on Ash Wednesday to get the obligatory ashes on your forehead. You get in line with everybody else. Then you notice people returning to their seats sporting enormous, indeterminate blobs of soot and realize you’re going to go back to work with a gigantic ad on your forehead that might as well say: “Interested in knowing more about Catholicism?”
Do I wipe them off? I mean, I DID go to church, right? My saint of a grandmother is rolling in her grave right now. Anyway, I know there is a rule about what NOT to talk about with clients...religion, politics and how the Phillies blew it last year. But, How can I hide THIS? "Wait until you see the view from this lovely master bedroom...You'd see it better if you can stop looking at my forehead".
I'm proud to be Catholic and do consider myself very blessed. So even though I won't ask about your religion, you can see mine. And I don't mind if you stare.
