Oh, I dunno, Angel, we've had some pretty funny things in the Masses
I've been at. One time when we were at Mass and I was about 13, at
the collection time, I heard the guy with the basket getting close to
us. I wanted to make sure he saw us, so for some reason I grabbed my
blind friend's arm, in which she was holding the money she was
supposed to put into the basket, and started waving it for the guy to
see. She, thinking I meant the money guy was at our pew, let go of
the money, which fell on the floor, and the guy with the basket had
to get down and crawl around and pick it up. And when my sighted
brother used to take my friend and me to Communion, he'd say it was
like driving two sherman tanks. When one of us would receive
Communion, we'd poke the other one so they'd know it was their turn,
but we'd poke so hard that the other one would practically fall
over. We spent half our lives giggling at these situations. Then
when I started to sing at Mass, the fun increased. At one point I
was singing a solo, and my mind went totally blank in the middle of
the verse. All I could do was sit there and shake with laughter
until I could remember some words and start singing again. Another
time, my friend dropped her guitar on the floor during Mass. The
floor wasn't carpeted at the time, and it sounded like thunder! But
I think the funniest time of all was a few years ago when I went to
Communion with my fellow choir members. When we got back to our
places, the lady I'd walked with picked up what she thought was my
binder with my words, and handed it to me. I opened it up, and there
were no Braille dots! Just smooth print pages. I said, "This isn't
mine," and she said, "Yes it is." She finally realized I was right,
probably when she picked up her music and saw a bunch of
bumps! Everyone standing around me in the choir was practically
rolling on the floor with laughter; and we were supposed to be singing! <lol>
