For the girls, your name has Mary, Anne, Catherine, Elizabeth, Margaret, or some version of those names somewhere in it.
 
…You accidentally eat a piece of meat on Friday, because you forgot what day it was. :eek:

…You bow your head at the Name of Jesus.

…You don’t want to clap at protestant services.

…You feel really out of place at protestant services.

YES. That song still makes me wince. I can’t listen to it even passively without getting annoyed.

When, at the end of the Pledge of Allegiance, you say “Good morning sister” in your head (can’t help it) and sometimes say “g” before you stop yourself.

In our school, we didn’t have sisters teaching homeroom, but we always ended the Pledge with “God Bless America and God bless Sacred Heart (the school).” Cue our choir being invited to sing for the mayor on the local news, and all 100 of us getting as far as “God Bless” before we remembered.

…someone runs over my foot with the shopping cart in the supermarket and I apologize to them (Catholic guilt).

This could also be a You know you are Canadian when… moment. 😉

Also;

Someone bumps into you from behind in the supermarket and YOU apologize to THEM and then they apologize to you and then you apologize to them because they felt the need to apologize to you and then etc. etc. etc.
 
…when you are having a discussion about religion with your protestant friends and they say “That’s not what it says in the Bible!” and you tell them “Well, you are using the abridged version- you are going to miss some things.”

I recommend ducking after saying this…🙂

Love it! Love it! Love it!

John 6: 20 - 70!!! YESSSSSS!!!
 
you fall asleep praying the Rosary and have to crawl under your bed the next morning because you realize it fell on the ground and being blessed it can’t stay there

You start to say “Amen” after reciting things like the Pledge of Allegiance

The new year starts in November

The first few Masses of this year sounded a lot like “And also with (pause) oops!” or “And also with your Spirit”

you don’t put your wise men figures in the nativity set until the eve of Epiphany, and you have them, with their camel, “travel” from Christmas until then by moving them a little bit closer each night.

I don’t understand why everybody is laughing. Doesn’t EVERYBODY have the Wise Men start to come (from the East, naturally) from Christmas until they get to the creche on Epiphany? And then when they get there, go outside and put the wise men’s initials and the year’s date on the front of the house with chalk?
 
you cringe when you see rosaries being used as fashion accessories.
 
… you can relax when not knowing all the answers, yet knowing that God is just and good and that you’re in the right Church.
 
When you confuse “St.” as “Saint”, when “St.” is referring to street, like Charles Brook St. 😛
