Help!

Someone I work with has asked me if I can “send her good vibes” while she is away on business in Peru. I said I would have to think about it - it isn’t that I don’t want to send her good vibes, but I’m unsure of how to actually go about it. She was incredulous; she seemed to consider the sending of good vibes to a far-away person a trifling feat, accomplished with little or no effort or disturbance, as easy as peeling a banana.

I don’t know if I’ve ever been in receipt of good vibes or not: perhaps if I had I would be better able to despatch them in the direction of my co-worker. As it is I’m thinking I’ll just kind of wave my hands around and make mumbling noises in the general direction of South. Maybe twice a day?

Any tips would be appreciated. For example, are there any props which might assist me? A wobble board? Deely-boppers? Goggles?

    you have been in receipt of good vibes from me - Mr H scorns good vibes and asks me to desist from referring to them when we are in the company of his scientist colleagues who all roll on the floor laughing when I say that positive thoughts don’t do any harm. Just think nice thoughts.

    And I don’t care how funny you think this is…. (I do, but someone will send me good vibes to get over it)

    I am like air traffic control for Good Vibes. And I’m talking Heathrow, not Newquay International. I send em out, request them back, and even redirect them for people (”could you please send Good Vibes to my sister who has fallen down a well and can’t get out”). I am sure that this in no way makes me an irritating bint.

    I am currently sending out Indifferent Vibes to someone. I find them more effective than Ambivalent Vibes, which can be a bit up-and-down.

    dmts: any nice thoughts in particular? I mean should they be related to the vibe-recipient? Should they involve the vibe-recipient? Are you sure some hand-gestures wouldn’t help speed the vibes on their way?

    Norah: so what happens when vibes collide mid-air? Do you ever find yourself having to “stack” vibes in a holding pattern over a particularly unfortunate person?

    KE: that’s funny, I seem to be quite capable of picking up indifferent vibes!

    I charge for Vibes, some people call this immoral, but I just call it good business sense.

    Don’t send any but say you did. I’m sure the effect will be pretty much the same.

    Pete: I applaud your acumen.

    Ant: you had to come right out and say it in front of H and Norah.

    Jimi: that will teach you to skimp on registered delivery.

    When it came to exams a friend of mine got an envelope from his mum. In it was a sheet of A4 paper with her handprints on it and instructions: Pin to wall; place hands on prints and receive good vibes. My mum put my grant application in the glove compartment of her car and forget to post it.

    I think she wants you to phone your local radio station and request they play an old Beachboys tune. Obviously she is a ham radio fan and has the equipment to listen to any radio station no matter its location. I hope you complied with her demands, those types can be very vindictive, and that same equipment can be used to spy on you through your TV. Good luck dealing with your stalker.
