    I remember being an alter boy and having to do midnight mass, it was like combat duty.

    Like an hour and a half long, super complicated. I pulled it off though, I was pretty industrious when I was very young.

    That and the stations of the cross were pretty much the big services that I can remember.
    my junk is ugly

    Well they weren't Catholics but it was the only thing they could attend to celebrate Christmas. They also talked about Palm Sunday and how much they enjoyed it there. I am sure their families still there are attending Mass.

    I did that too. I was nine. It was a $#@!. It did get me out of school a hour early one day a week so it worked out okay.

    It was sitting in the chair by the altar on Good Friday that got to me. You had to sit there for three hours doing nothing. No, I can't pray that long. Staying awake was a problem. I'm narcoleptic and I had to fight hard.
