Default If you were canonized, which patron saint would you be?

I would have to be the patron saint of either:

* messy room/homes

* unfinished business/homework

And you?

Default Re: If you were canonized, which patron saint would you be?

I'd probably be the patron of the misunderstood. Then again, I think there's probably many saints that have already beat me to it. So I guess that means I'll be in really good company.

Default Re: If you were canonized, which patron saint would you be?

I guess I'll be the patron saint of people who are terrible in math or algebra. I'm one of them, after all.

I'll join you on that one! -- especially if the missing item is unfinished homework lost in the clutter of a messy room!

Honestly, my son now expresses admiration for me if I know where my keys are in the mornings

I probably will end up being the patron saint of all things that are totally awesome and great like me. Or the patron saint of humility.

Default Re: If you were canonized, which patron saint would you be?

Patron saint of undertaking more than he can possibly ever get done, but being incapable of realizing it until something or other goes totally awry, then, having dealt with that immediate crisis, undertakes yet another thing to which he can't possibly do justice.

(Kind of a limited patronage, I would say. I don't think I would be on any medals.)

The Patron Saint of People Who Forget to Set Their Alarm Clocks Correctly

You know...you meant to wake up at 7:00 am but you accidentally set your alarm for 7:00 pm. I'd interceed for people without their prayers by being that strange urge they feel to check their clocks at some strange time like 7:16 am and realize they set their alarm wrong so that they don't miss class.

My icon/stained class window of me would be as a college student wearing yesterday's clothes and apply FeBreze to them since there is no time for a proper shower due to oversleeping.

Hehe - I feel your pain. Shame there's nothing that works quite so well on human BO as Febreze does on smelly clothes. Especially in summer.
