Duchezz and I were talking about the Dec. 24 Mass schedule, which one I would go to, etc. I was kvetching about the tendancy to use the Midnight Mass liturgy for earlier masses (which is just...wrong). Well, our church is having Mass on the 24th at 6:30 (Christmas Vigil). Duchezz thought I would be upset. "No," I said, "there's a Mass for that!"
Beat. Beat. Wicked Duchezz smile. "There's a Mass for that?" she said, using the iPhone ad inflection. "You realize," she said, "you got the inflection exactly right, don't you?"
*head* *desk*
That'll be 10 "Hail Mary"s and an "Act of Contrition."
Doh!
