39. God it is that has made you inheritors in the earth. If then, any do reject, their rejection is against themselves. Their rejection but adds to the odium for the unbelievers in the sight of their Lord. Their rejection but adds to undoing.
40. Say, "Have you seen 'partners' of yours whom you call besides Allah? Show me what it is they have created in the earth. Or have they a share in the heavens?" Or have We given them a Book from which they refer? No! The wrongdoers promise each other nothing but delusions.
The Originator of Creation 35:39-40

Whew. What a long day. I'm still updating, programming and troubleshooting. My Mom gave me a little bit of money, which I used to update the equipment I work with. Thanks, Mom. It's not much money, but badly needed. Today was blistering hot, and full of commute. I learned to abhor the desert from living in Arizona for 13 or so years. Gag, I hate hot weather. I burn easily, so I cover up all my skin if I go outside. I cover up my mouth too, so I must appear extra menacing. I loathe commute, too. I had my fill of travel when I was young, and now that I'm old I don't even want to commute. Perlis is becoming congested. Even the back and village roads were congested today, but I did have to drive during rush hour. Trees don't have to commute, and they survive hundreds of years. Coral and sea anemones don't commute, either. Neither do clownfish.
I apologize for bitching. While you are still young and enjoy the experience, please do all the traveling you desire before we marry inshaAllah. For after we marry, we will stay in one place and raise a family. OK? I want to make you happy, and I want you to be happy with me. I love you Erin, and I need you.

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
Hey there Erin, my dearest wife inshaAllah. How are you feeling today, my beloved? How's life at the top? I warned you it would be lonely. But I am your husband inshaAllah, I will marry you, and help protect you. I love you, and I need you. So please be patient, and pray. I just updated my computer, so I have been busy programming and troubleshooting. Then on Monday evening, I had to do some grass cutting. This hot weather gives me a headache, and chaps my lips. Then little ---- acquired a fever somehow, even though she's indoors all the time. She was listless and wobbly, so I gave her some fever reducer, and she seems to be doing better and eating again.
How is your gang, by the way? Are you and your friends getting used to Model Global Conflict? Is somebody getting a fever over it? Well, business is business, and the skeptics are finding out that it costs money to be skeptical. Don't forget who you are and what your role is in this brouhaha: you are MY girl. Mine, mine, MINE. I will distract them away from you inshaAllah. But don't justify yourselves. Allah knows best who it is that guards against evil.

Hello my most beloved darling Erin. How are you feeling today, scrumptious? Right now, I'm watching the Jerry Springer show: "It's Not My Baby". But don't you go sighing over people whose evil conduct seems pleasing to them. God knows what is in their hearts. You do know I have my own TV station. I don't enjoy other people's programming. The computer chooses whatever it is I watch at a time, and if I don't like it then I skip to the next show. The randomizer in my media player does a great job of choosing the right show, so in essence, God is my program director.
So I woke up this morning at 8am, fed the cats, cleaned out the cat box, swept and mopped my bedroom, then cooked up some chicken broth with the bones left over from deboning the chicken breast I bought the other day. After I was done, I gave the bones to my kitties. Mucho mas snackipoo-o's. All my cats slept the afternoon away. I spent the evening pruning the mango tree and the growth on my fence in front of my house. Heh... I let that go for many years, but now there's a clear view. I need a chainsaw. For dinner, I made a couple of calzones, one for you and one for me. Actually, I ate them both. I'm sure you know what a calzone is even though Google doesn't, but I'll explain for other people. A calzone is like a folded over pizza. I roll out the dough, lay some sausage and cheese on it, then fold it over and pinch the edges. You can bake it if you want, but I deep fry it because it's faster. Usually I put sauce inside, but this time I didn't. I used the sauce for dipping instead. I'm sorry I ate your calzone. Wish you were here. I love you, and I need you.

Hey there, my beautiful Erin. How are you feeling today, you gorgeous girl? I pray you are feeling great and having a terrific time. Please maintain your prayers, and be a good girl. I love you, and I need you.
Only 2 weeks ago, it was raining everyday . The rain was heavy, pounding the ground like sledgehammers at times. We should have flooded here in Perlis, but we didn't. The water drained quickly and as furiously as it came down. It flooded much of everywhere else though. Now the weather is hot and dry. I was cutting the grass just now, and I was surprised at how dry the grass was. As if it hadn't rained at all recently. But it is supposed to be the dry season here in January. What a violent mood swing, though. The weather around here has been very distorted the past 6 years.
By the way, when you're giving away beauty tips, don't forget to mention how important it is to have a good heart. For example, you were at your most beautiful when you were making that video for the Northwest at the children's hospital in New Orleans. You were wearing just a simple black dress and hardly any makeup, but no one could deny how beautiful you are, and how much you are loved.

So have you given much thought about your house? I'm rather easy going. I prefer small houses: the house I'm living in now is perfect for me, and I love this house so much. That's because I've been alone all my life, and I'm a lazy slob. But don't worry- I do house cleaning when I'm forced to, even though I loathe it. As for your house, you would probably find me sleeping on the floor somewhere, in front of a computer. The dimensions of the foundation that I gave you are modest, so you certainly can't build a mansion. Just a normal sized house, for us and our children. With all the modern amenities, especially backup power and water. I would want the house to be easy to clean, perhaps with a flushing system that I can turn a lever and wash the house out with a single flush. But it is YOUR house, so it has to fit you. For example, the doorways have to at least allow you and your high heels to pass easily. Everybody's short here, so you won't find such doors here: they would have to be custom made or imported. The counter tops can be tall, I don't care. I'll sit on a baby chair or something.
I told you before not to limit yourself to one product when it comes to your work. Why don't you take the opportunity to learn more about houses as you work? Those guys on "This Old House" sure know their stuff, but they're not pretty. You would be a great asset in front of the camera, talking to homeowners. Go ahead and give them a call, and help crank up their "hot babe" factor. Anyway, please pray with me that Allah will bring us together and keep us together in love and happiness, in this life as well as the hereafter. Erin, I love you and I need you.

Qur'an 20150113
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.
46. Say, "I do admonish you on one point: that you do stand up before Allah, in pairs or alone, and reflect. Your companion is not possessed: he is no less than a warner to you, in face of a terrible penalty."
47. Say, "No reward do I ask of you: it is in your interest. My reward is only due from Allah, and God is Witness to all things."
48. Say, "Verily my Lord does cast the Truth. God that has full knowledge of what is hidden."
49. Say, "The Truth has arrived, and falsehood neither creates anything new, nor restores anything."
50. Say, "If I am astray, I only stray to the loss of my own soul. But if I receive guidance, it is because of the inspiration of my Lord to me. It is God Who hears all things, and is near."
Sheba 34:46-50
