I'm not ready for Lent...
I don't want to give up coffee... And I know if anything I'll just have withdrawal symptoms for the first day and then I'm fine. But even then... I don't know... I don't see how giving up coffee makes me closer to God. Insert Fr. Mike vid. At the same time... I have ideas. Like going to Mass daily or stopping by my church on the way to work, but that will drastically change my schedule and... Why wouldn't I continue that after Lent? I'm not ready for that.
Tita Neng just called. They're not coming. Asking 7500centfish for binge watching suggestions. I was interested in seeing the British version of Ghosts. 7500centfish wants me to see Traitors. I don't think I have any of those available to me legally...
Yeah, not much else to write. Meaning I won't have much to write tomorrow...
Hm... Maybe I can get the Boston Market I've been craving...
Rando notes...
Catholic Answers. Cy mispronounced Boise again. But Jimmy explained in English it's more common to pronounce the S between 2 vowels as a z, but Boise is different. Anyway... That made me realize even if my name was spelled with an s it would still be pronounced the same. Intervocalic S...
Clerically Speaking... Fr. Harrison said he's been learning a lot about Filipinos. FYI, he's in Canada, near Vancouver. Anyway... He was saying a lot of Filipinos hold the baptism till the 1st birthday because no one wants to spend money on both a baptism party and a 1st birthday. I asked Mom if I had a Baptism party. She doesn't remember. I think 7500centfish and I had a combo party for 1st / 3rd birthday, I guess? I've seen pictures... Anyway, maybe it's a recent thing or maybe the fact my parents are both professionals... But then Fr. Harrison was also saying they're also poorly catechized and get civilly married because the Philippines has a lot of fees to get married and no one wants to pay those either. He then talks about newly emigrated, working 2 jobs, etc. Uh... Once gain, maybe I shouldn't be taking but aren't Filipinos (at least Americans according to that chart I previously posted) aren't we the 2nd highest socioeconomic group? Stereotypical nurses and navy... So I'm not sure how accurate his perception is. cc 7500centfish
I tried Mom's stevia sweetener. Yuck! I mean... It's sweet, but my coffee does not taste good at all. YUCK!!!
Addendum to that confession tweet I posted yesterday... What priests really think.
