im NOT catholic.... i dont even believe that jesus was born on december 25th... but THAT is another story... here is the simplist link i found to describe Lent - in its traditional usages... its actually cool to read. (if you are the faithful type of person... if your soul is black as a tar baby though... maybe- dont read it..) disclaimer--->this is NOT meant to offend anyone. its NOT my job to pass judgement, so understand please, those of you who DO practice Lent as a piece of your faith... i do not at all look down on you.((hence the following link))..... :-Dhttp://www.kencollins.com/holy-04.htmi DO find that practicing Lent is very helpful though... moreso than so called 'new years resolutions'.... TSSSSH.last year my *main squeeze* and i each gave up our sweet tooth's for Lent... just because. it was *spur of the mo* kinda thing...he gave up cookies (which he had been consuming on a daily basis) and i gave up ice cream...aka "your mom" (which i also ate like a mad woman on lsd) NOW - *his hotness* hardly ever eats cookies. and i hardly eat ice cream. now - those sweets are very good and yummy and tastey.. and comforting. dont get me wrong... but if you use Lent as a period to 'go through hell' - while giving up something you have been naughtily indulging in... atleast you wont be alone.AND.... if you have a *'lent buddy'*... then you can keep tabs. :-)its a WHOLE lot simpler than having a LIST of resolutions you wont even think-about-once-you-have-looked-up-from-the-paper-you (may have) written-them-on....... and it WILL change your habits.this year though... im stumpt. ray is giving up Energy Drinks... YAAAY!!! im so glad he picked that. they are not good for us to drink.. yea yea i have had a Red Bull here and there... but its not a fetish like his Monsters.... yikes. (lol)but.... me. what do i give up? and seein that it is ash wednesday - im starting a lil late. but i can always start tomorrow - (now) and go til april 8th instead of april 7th...im low on ice cream intake(maybe once a month if that...) ... only have coffee maybe 3 x a week... and its ONLY a 'short latte' now, as opposed to my old 'double tall'.... im NOT smoking pot anymore (dont freak out stoner buddies.. ill be back but not for a while...). i really DONT like to drink alcohol and dont do it regularly... so not much to give up there. don't go through the 'drive thru' very much at all either....what else could it be?? i could give up sarcasm.... ((*yeah right*))cheese? but i dont think that would be good either... maybe just yellow cheese? but i already dont EVER eat 'processed/american cheese'... ick. and insta-sick....at work i eat pretzels and apples... clif bars... and safeway soups....i dont eat anything 'bad' on a reg basis lately... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!what do i do??? i mean. i even BOUGHT oreos... but i have not had them even more than twice since they got put in the cupboard- two weeks ago.i need to stop taking on too many projects... but HOW does one do that? i need to make more money... i need to exercise more... but i AM going to register on payday to JOIN a 12 week 'rowing crew' training dealy on lake union... i could give up swearing... *but uhhh* shit- im a sailor's daughter...masturbation? welp i'd say im def not goin overboard with it so-- ill KEEP that one too. teeheeheehmmmph. what to do.. i guess i could give up coffee altogether. it wouldnt be EASY.... maybe that's it. but i feel like i've already cut down on it so much anyways... hmmmph again. (you liking how im thinkin out loud??) maybe all caffienated beverages? like only drink juice and green tea, water and chocolate milk.. lemonade??... etc. oooh. and decaf coffee... :-D*loading... please wait* ask me tomorrow what i've decided to give up... but by all means... only if you want to know...xoxoxox
