Why is it...that every Ash Wednesday, the priest or deacon always administers the ashes above my left eyebrow? Everyone else gets nice, neat ashes smack dab in the center of their forehead. Mine are always way out in left field. Perhaps my face is askew, and I didn't notice?
Next time, I'm going to draw a bullseye on my forehead in purple felt pen. I want my Catholic bindi to look symmetrical, dammit!

No, no, no. Do a dot-to-dot on your forehead. Much more subtle once the ashes are safely in place.

Um. Yeah, not a clue as to how that "p" got there, nor what it is doing...sorry.
Mortification, my dear.
