X-tians

Yesterday someone mentioned to us that it was exactly 6 months until Christmas and that brought on a few cheers and I thought to myself, "well merry X-mas to me". The next thought that came to my mind was "Merry X-mas you X-tian" and I was like, whoa, why didn't the hip people that came up with the snappy catch phrases like "generation next" come up with sayings like "hey i'm a generation x-tian" or something like that. So I was like I'm so cool coming up with that saying, so this morning I was on the pooper I pulled out my favorite brother's present to me one year, "The Pocket Encyclopedia of Aggravation" (because lord knows sometimes when you're on the pooper you're aggravated) and for some reason I found a page that I have never perused before. Yes I know, God works in mysterious ways... even on the bowl. And there, right before my eyes was an explanation of where the "X" from Merry X-mas came from. I'm sure many of you know that X was a Greek symbol for the word "chi" and Christ was known by the symbols for the words "chi" and "ro" (it looks like a "P" intercepting and "X") and in Greek Christ is known as "Xristos". So I'm late in my thinking that I am so cool with coming up with "Xtians" because in the 16th century throughout Europe the use of X to replace "Christ" spread. They even used it for words like christen =xren.

Thanks God for setting me right.
I guess I'll refer to Christopher as Xopher and Christina as Xina.
Jesus X.

Happy day! Day off tomorrow. Staying in bed all day!!!

Have a great rest of the week.
Me.
