The Lewd Dude's Guardian Angel

According to Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, each of us has our own guardian angel, a numinous spirit that watches over us and, hopefully, keeps us on some semblance of the straight and narrow path. Obviously, their job may or may not be easy, depending on the human assigned to them.

We must remember, though, that these guardian angels, though noncorporeal beings who will perpetually exist, have their own limitations.  My guardian angel Steve, for example, shows a typical male cluelessness with regard to fashion and needed my guidance.  But for the most part, their limitations are small-scale.  Thank goodness!

Even the Lewd Dude has a guardian angel.  Her name is Chloe.  (Yes, they assigned him one of a different sex too.)  And apparently she is very scatterbrained, and not terribly diligent in her guardian angel duties.  But, as Chloe put it, what she does is good enough for government work!  Which government, she wisely did not name.  I am sorry to say that she sometimes stays back home in Hoosier Country while the Lewd Dude roams at large.

Speaking of government work, Chloe is hoping that the Lewd Dude will be appointed censor of movies after he attains adulthood.   Or perhaps he might find meaningful employment as a bouncer in a coffeeshop.  Chloe's view is that her job is not too difficult if you deliberately not notice a lot of things.  What she is unaware of cannot hurt her.

Chloe forgot something and can't remember what it is.

Chloe has a halo and wings but she does not look like an angel!

My guardian angel is pretty laid back, but Chloe is exceptional!

At times like this, one must remember that there are two types of angels ...

When Chloe's contract expires I'm going to see if I can sign her up with me.
