Happy Death in Christ day to me!

HAHAHA!!!  I can't believe I told Fr. I I wish I had a confessor who could read my soul!  😆

Anyway...  I woke up early even when I was tired.  Like...  I still felt tired from the night before and tried my best to sleep in.  I had asked to work at 10:30...  But then I wanted to go to Mass...  I should still have at least an hour to sleep in.  But in addition to tired, I felt kinda crappy and just couldn't get back to sleep.  I did pray my Rosary at a somewhat normal time, but then I slept in before I did the rest.  I then got up and started freaking out about eating / fasting for Mass.  I mean...  I'm still not receiving communion, but in the odd chance Fr. I offers it to me...  Anyway, Mom was asleep when I came down, but then woke up just as I was about to leave.  I mentioned I was going to Mass before work.  She thought I had an MD appt...  In addition, she thought I was going to a place near work.

I left at 9 b/c I didn't know how long before Mass he wanted me there for confession.  When I came in there was a Rosary group in the little chapel.  As I said, they removed the glass so you can see into it, but I didn't see many people.  But then the 4th mystery I heard Fr. I spreed reciting.  Lol.  At that point I became paranoid that I'd have to wait till after Mass.  It was still 15 mins before Mass, but you know the blue hairs.  Either way, it ended and...  I hear my name whispered.  It's Fr. I.  He whisks me into a hallway off the chapel and I confess.  Lol...  In my minds eye I just lol.  First off I'm like running after him like...  I don't know...  I can't think of anything else to describe it like a child or a school girl following in tow.  Then...  I just remember him saying like remember I'm a child of God.  He stayed with the 6 Hail Marys...  I then cry whispered my contrition.  Lol...  As we parted he asked how work was.  Fine.  I then ran out head down back into the main church and he chatted with the rosary group.  I'm such a dork.  #nosingang

As I tweeted a lot of his preaching today was on Padre Pio.  One of his "miracles" was the ability to read souls.  I don't know...  Yes, I go to confession a lot.  But I don't feel I'm any good at it.  Yes, I prepare.  But...  I still feel like there is some hidden sin I'm missing.  And...  Yes, I'm forgiven of it, but if I can't name it, it's not really something I can activity work on.  So in a sense, I would love to confess to Padre Pio and have him read my soul.  I then responded to Fr. I's post...  "I love Padre Pio. Sometimes I wish I had a confessor who could read my soul. Hahaha... 😆"  His response.  🤣  HAHAHAHA!!!  I find it extra funny that I just went to confession to him!  An he practically is my confessor.

Oh yeah...  I got to church early, but I didn't sit in our usual seat b/c I didn't want to be close to the camera.  I didn't want to have anything I say be on the recording.  In addition...  Via the communion order it seems like this mother and her child sit in the vicinity.  Anyway...  They were seated in the special seating aisle, which was diagonally in front of me.  Also as once stated, the kid singing along gives me life.  At one point he throws his teddy bear in the air and it lands under my pew, well the one in front.  He didn't see, but was going pew to pew saying, "uh oh".  I eventually point it out to him and he crawls under to get it.  Too cute.

Anyway...  All that, even when it amuses me, it does kinda make me sad b/c I don't have anyone to share it with or more...  Equally share in my joy.  Like I can tell this to everyone and anyone, but...  It doesn't bring them the joy it brings me.

Went to work kinda regretting the later hour.  I was still tired.  Having the cramps again.  Ugh...

Marna is prepping for her berfday on Fri.  I don't know why she asked what I wanted.  I just said I don't eat meat on Fridays...  So she was looking into fish / shrimp.

I looked into Halal Guys, the other halal place near by.  They too have "white sauce".  I guess it's a halal thing?  And...  It is made of mayo.  As I texted 7500centfish, I need to find a more convenient Greek place.  She mentioned a place we went to, but...  I need something between home and work or on the main corridor.  As previously stated, I did like the one from Hell's Kitchen, but that's an exit away.  Hm...  I am going to Derm tomorrow...

Legonium posted excerpts from The Hobbit in Latin.  I commented, since Tolkien was a Catholic, is it pronounced in Ecclesiastical Latin?

confession, #nosingang, being a dork
