What to expect when your child is a Catholic nerd, part twenty-seven:
Me: I've got the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom stuck in my head.
My Father: Oh, I hate it when that happens.
And even better:
My Father: What are you doing with my croquet instructions?
Me: I needed to write something down, so I'm using the back.
My Father: What, strategy notes?
Me: No, a hymn to Venerable Charles Hapsburg.
Not that my dad isn't much better: we spent a large chunk of lunch talking about the Catacombs together. It's nice being on the same wavelength as your parents, no matter how oddly tuned you both are.
