All The Grievances

Not The Philosopher

Everyone in the streets on the way to Mass this morning was shouting and honking their horns about the hockey game. I was tired and irritable and wanted them to stop.

Any problems I might have had to complain about on this thread were just solved by watching that. XD

Cowlicks...I tried to cut my hair super-short, but when your hair is super-short, there's not much that can be done with a cowlick. I had lopsided tufts for months.

Exaggeration...I have a grievance against exaggerations.

 

It was probably just a few weeks.

I was really nervous before receiving the Eucharist for the first time as an adult convert.  Afterward, I knelt at my pew to pray and thank Him that the wait was finally over when one of the other people's sponsors leaned over, "See it wasn't that bad!  How does it feel?"  Well I'm still chewing Jesus...can you give me a few lol?

 

I'm the only Catholic in the family, everyone else just puts up with me. One Easter, my sister was feeling a little morbid and eschatological, so she posted on Facebook, "I don't want candy this Easter, I just need more Jesus," so I said, "I'll eat your candy then 'cause I already ate Jesus."

 

(And she replied, "BWAHAHAHAHA...")

At my Confirmation the bishop was trying hard not to laugh (I could tell) at my Confirmation name (John Paul II) since he somewhat knows me and it was a choice. I didn't pick John Paul did! And I did have that little joy (fireworks) moment and the rest of the people who were confirmed with me said they didn't.

Sorry! I thought I was going to fall in front of the bishop since I had 2 inch wedges on. (I have fallen in front of the bishop before when I served a Confirmation with him.) :P

I get the fuzzy feelings every eucharist, is that a :( or a :) or like whatever :disguise: , but as far as i'm aware i don't rely on them, there is the odd occasion that i don't get them, i don't always have the warm fuzzy feelings in my life though just after holy mass and the precious body and blood. Also i don't have a confirmation saint, a few years after i came back into communion with the holy roman catholic i came accross the whole confirmation saint thing because i was sponsering a friend and decided to find out whom mine was. But alas there is no record of a confirmation saint where i was confirmed, they have a record of my confirmation though. I guess the day for me is all saints day, if i play that card than i get a bit more cheery about the whole thing. I love most of the saints mostly, :P :lol: . I don't know whom i would wan't my patron saint to be, it has been suggested to me just to pick one, i haven't given it much thought yet just a little consideration, i would like to have a patron saint. I think my patron angel is Raphael. Oh, and the government is taking to long to get me a new flat. okay there are my grieviosers.

To add to Cartermia's thoughts on Bishops and laughter with her experience with the two inch wedges...during one of the things in RCIA, we had to put baptismal certificates in a binder.  My Bishop was fighting back laughter at me as I tried to put it into the 3 ring binder while shaking like a leaf.

LOL. That. Is. Awesome!

Happens to me every four to six weeks... for as long as I've been alive.

Is this just for arbitrary greivances?

Well, if it is - My singing teacher gave me the absolutely gorgeous song to learn, and I *loved* it. Then I went home, and I read the words (it was in French) and realized that it subtly denied the divinity of Christ. I have to go tell her on Thursday that I can't sing it. :cry4:

Awww. :(

 

 

Yes, my intention in beginning this thread was to provide adequate shelter for entirely arbitrary grievances.
