"Strep? Make my day....."

I'm kidding, actually, for the first time in my LIFE, I did not wake up the morning after the Blessing of Throats with a scratch or a tickle.
Sacramentals make me feel so unbreakably connected to those who have preceded us even more so than All Souls or All Saints Mass.
Did anyone else have Father Efficiency for Mass on the Memorial of St Blaise?
Last night, like a gunslinger, firing two weapons at once, Fr E. just lined us up and strode between two lines of people, one pair of crossed candles in each hand, laying waste to the viral, bacterial, or carcinomous bad guys that might be lurking in his congregation's throats.
