I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'm trying to remember what my sister and brother went through at their Catholic high schools when JPI and his predecessor both died--I think that they had memorial masses at the schools, and the new popes were announced over the intercoms, but that was about it.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I think the mass is a gimme, but we got out so many days for SB and Easter that I'd be surprised if we got a day off.

It's kind of sad, remembering the Pope when he first showed up, all energetic and young-ish and non-Italian. I don't think he ever came back all the way after being shot.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, god, I'm in a Catholic college for another five weeks. Ack.

I'm kinda wondering what all will happen at my school when the pope dies. More masses? A day off for mourning?

I wasn't in Catholic school when the last pope died but when our diocese's bishop died when I was in (Catholic) H.S. we got the day off. Way to make a bunch of kids go "WOOOOT" at your death.

On the CBC they said he received the anointing of the sick, not last rites. They are different, right? I haven't forgotten everything?

At least you get a few fond thoughts as you go.

Exactly! I want to see if I can arrange something like that at my passing. Like endow a day off at my old high school.

That would be ... well, nifty.
