got crucifix?

Only 6 more hours of work.

Two coworkers had a card waiting on my desk for me this morning. It contained a small gift: a crucifix pendant. I now own a crucifix. What does one do with an undesired crucifix? Are there special instructions for disposing of it, like there are for a flag?

It just seems so weird and presumptious of others to give me a religious object. I have never told them that I'm a big fan a Jesus. It is curious that they would assume so. Maybe I just appear to be a 'good christian girl.'

I gave my brother a chalice pendant once. He told me exactly which one he wanted. I knew his religious identity. That isn't presumptious.

Anybody want a crucifix?

and now, hopped up on donated starbucks doubleshots I will try to get though the day. I was up too late with F & a pair of twins on a Greater Trumps/First Thursday/Portland Coffeehouse/Voodoo Donuts adventure.
