In my new religion, today is an important day. It is both my duty and pleasure to share the history of this sacred holy day with the community (just imagine that Andrew of Shut Up Dad and I am at your front door and you answer and Andrew hands you an informational pamphlet and NO your passive aggressive huffing and puffing won’t get us to hurry…so listen up).
It began long ago on a Tuesday when the mists of light arose through the darkness to animate and bring purpose to the First Meeting of the First Man and First Woman at Chi Chi’s…many years prior to the Mexican restaurant’s fatal hepatitis A outbreak. As I recall, I had a birthday party there in 1993 which involved a little birthday song that rhymed “birthday” with “olé” and then they gave my fat ass some free fried ice cream and a sombrero that I still own. No one even gives out free sombreros anymore, it’s so disappointing.
I digress. Apologies.
So anyway, the First Man and First Woman went to Chi Chi’s. Unto them many tacos and margaritas were served, which assisted in joyous conversation and a fine First Meeting. Thus, the First Man and First Woman celebrated, for this was a day the food gods had made, and it was good.
The two felt a spiritual connection, one likely brought on by the warmth of the western wind…or maybe just the excess of margaritas…perhaps both. Regardless, it led them back to his place.
Shortly after they arrived, a Mayan drum song began to play out of nowhere and kissing stuff happened and soon even touching stuff happened, too. Even though the First Woman’s mother insisted that all women who sleep with men upon the First Meeting are dirty little hussies and trollops, the two spent the night together as one in bliss. This ignited an eternal fire–it’s light was the mind’s first awakening.
A wolf’s howl can be heard every Tuesday at 10:32 pm as a symbolic reminder of this magical occurrence.
In remembrance, we are called to worship on this spicy Sabbath day through taco and/or margarita consumption, writing poetry and making sweet, sweet love with a consenting partner (or hand) while playing the video below because of the intense passionate music mixed and wolf pictures.
Seriously, if nothing else, do it to the video/song. The sounds of your love-making will reverberate off the rooftops, I promise.
Anyway, have a happy, safe Taco Tuesday!
I like the part with the kissing stuff and the touching stuff and the taco stuff.
😉
I used to work with a woman (who was a lesbian, and that’s not really relevant to the story, but it was juicy gossip) who used to go to some bar every Tuesday for “Taco Tuesday” which I guess proves that this holy day is just not celebrated at Chi Chi’s, but throughout the land.

I don’t know what I’m more impressed with. That you also have a passion for tacos, or that you use words like “hussie” and “trollop”. When are we combining blog forces? We would need a team name of course. Wolf pack has a good ring to it, but it’s kind of played out. Just something to think about…

What initiatory rights are there in this wonderful religion of yours? If I join but not my hand can sweet love making still happen or would that be a sin?

It can happen–there’s no such thing as sin in this religion. That’s what makes us so cool!

But, on the other hand, thinking I’m a sinner sometimes makes all my deviant sexual behavior more exciting… Maybe you should have some kind of “opt-in” on the sin question?

I may need to study this religion more. Of note, if you ever want the most awesome tacos on the planet: Taco Tia on Colton Ave. in Redlands, California. Just saying. While you’re down there, you can find an In-n-Out hamburger place and graze. You will want to buy two airline seats for the trip home, but you won’t care.
