    Facebook, but not for lent...for good!

    Just fed up with it and how my 'friends' keeping posting overly personal pics, information etc. on facebook. Some things are just so personal that they should not be shared on a world wide social networking site!

    Physical activity, intimate body contact and alcohol. Glandular fever makes lent super-easy! :D

    Was contemplating using lent as an excuse to give up alcohol. Just to see if I could/felt the beniefits blah blah blah.

    Then I realised there were some family functions etc coming up in that time that I would really rather be tipsy for to keep sane and knocked that idea on the head.

    I don't usually bother giving up things for Lent but this year I'm going to stay off chocolate, crisps and coffee. Using it as an excuse to de-tox.

    I haz a big belly.

    I want to get rid of big belly.

    I'm going to use Lent as an excuse to get rid of the big belly.

    I'm not giving up anything, I am going to do the Mass bits, and taking up better eating and exercise.

    Am I going to listen and obey everything I hear from the pulpit about it? Hell no. But I like the idea, it's something I need to do anyway, so I'm doing it.

    You know Lent is suspended on paddy's Day and Family ocasions (at least it was when I was a kid. Wedding and Paddy's Day crisps OMNYOMNYOMNYOM)

    Obviously. Milk and eggs, the cornerstone of indulgence.

    Heh, you'll have plenty of time to think about that, while you spend an eternity BURNING IN THE FIRES OF HELL.
