Can I have a funeral for my past?

I want to have funeral and reception for my past self. I think it would be a far more organic process than simply burning a piece of paper. I have drawing that represents all the hurt, toxic crud, etc, that I've been able to remember and that is what I want to bury, at a cemetery, in some kind of handmade biodegradable box. I want to invite my friends and family and have them talk about the ways I'd hurt them, the stupid things I've done, and stuff like that. I plan to send everyone letters of apology, acknowledging what I've done, sort of in lieu of the funeral invite. Then, after I want to have the reception where everyone brings food and has a party type thing. Am I totally off my rocker? There's been a bit of synchronicity that tells me no, when trying to decide when to hold this funeral, I said to myself, "it would be fantastic if there were a Friday the thirteenth coming up" and low and behold when I clicked the calendar forward I found Friday May 13, 2011 !!
