Posted: 3/1/06 at 12:35pmGiving up Dr Pepper for Lent is wrong. Giving up Dr Pepper for anything is wrong.

Posted: 3/1/06 at 4:38pmThere's a lady in my office right now that I want to strangle. She's in the process of flipping through our phone book and I just want to beat her over the head with it.

Poor Kitzy.
I think I may have been the only person on Arthur Avenue today without an ash cross on my head.

I am giving up carbonated beverages for Lent. That includes Dr Pepper...I doubt it I will last. I was going to give up men, but then realized I seem to be doing it already so it would not really be a sacrafice.
Here is my rant- Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. Ok, only havinig to meals ini a day and that is it....I suck at it! I skipped breakfast and ate lunch at about 1245 when I needed to eat something. Now it is 5 hours later and I realize I should have had a salad to go along with my PB&J. Seriously, right now I would usually be having popcorn. And I am not eating dinner til about 630 and can't eat anything after that. At midnight I am going to get a snack of some sort. It doesn't help that I am also exercising more for Lent too and well that makes me hungry too!
I know it is only two days out of the entire year, and usually I don't mind except when it is actually one of those days. I really don't think I would go to hell for eating something but damn my church likes to make it sound like I will!

Posted: 3/1/06 at 4:52pmVent- I'm not giving up anything for Lent. I'm not catholic so.... Anyway my life is going down the drain. I spent an hour last night and typed out my whole life story, pointing out all of the bad things that had happened to me. I gave the letter to my mom and she called a therapist today. I'm really in a bad position right now.

That's hilarious.
I have nothing to vent about.. well, except for the ten or so mormon guys that crowd around these computers like they own the place.
Some of them are nice, but others are kinda rude.

I'm venting about the rent watching episode I just had. I invited three friends over to watch, they all talked the entire time, and then left before it was over. Not to mention the snide comments they were making throughout (Is this about AIDS? Is that a girl or a guy? The mooing is so stupid, blah blah blah).
And um, I'm not Catholic, but I go to a Catholic college so I went to Mass today.
