Preach it, mom

So apparently my mother is an ordained minister now.

Her best friend has an atheist daughter who got engaged and is having a crisis over how to have a nice ceremony that doesn't mention God. So Mom decided to help her out by finding an online ordination mill in California. As soon as her certificate arrives she'll register for the state and stand by should she be required.

Sometimes I feel very close to my mom and sometimes like I got switched at birth. This is sort of both and in between.

Addendum: She also contributed a new sign to the tip jar at Jamba Juice:
Do you fear change? Leave it here!
According to my sister's friend who works there, tips are up about infinity percent.
