Just got back from a colleague's funeral. Funeral mass makes everyone sound the same.
The last funeral mass I went to was most annoying because the priest kept calling the deceased by her formal name, when absolutely everyone called her by her nickname, including the priest whom she had known for decades.
Timelies all!
Tired. Flight ended up taking off over 2 hours late, so we didn't land in DC until 10. Luckily, we didn't check any bags, so once we got off the plane, and got the little guy in his stroller, we went straight to the car.
The priest had this whole thing about L, my colleague, on her death bed. He said she was a beautiful soul like 17 times. It just felt like he didn't know her. It was also the first time since 1993 that I have been to a Catholic mass. I couldn't remember what they changed the Peace Be With You response to. But they sang hymns I knew.
Oh man, that's rough, Kat. (And the fact that they changed the words to mass weirds me out)
I'm halfway through Yuletide: into the M's. And there is a lot of EXCELLENT Martian fic!! Highly recommend.
