Lent

Feb 28, 2006 16:44

FYI to flist- I've decided to give up interneting while at work for Lent. This will probably be the hardest thing I've ever done, but I can't seem to cut down, so I'm bringing in reinforcements!

I'll try to get to as much Immy, JJB and flist as I can during my minimal home internet time!

*hugs to you all*

ETA: Oh, are you guys giving up

You are a brave, brave soul. :D

Not being Catholic and/or christian, the answer to that would be no. However, as religion fascinates me to no end, I find the whole Lent/Easter time of year interesting. *random*

As an ex-Catholic, I no longer give anything up for Lent. Damn - I don't think I could ween myself off the web. The last three vices left to me are scads of reading material, dark chocolate and the internet. There's got to be something else you could give up, sweetie!

Oh- well, it's not all together giving it up; just while at work. :)

I once heard of a sermon which focused on hidden sins in life and stealing and the minister akined using work time on the internet as stealing because you were stealing time from work. Although I don't agree with it whole-heartedly, I see the point.

I'm not Catholic, but I like to observe this period anyways.

Why did it put me as anonymous? I guess I'm not logged in!

*gasp* *choke* *cough* *keels over*

I would die. Fortunately I am neither Catholic nor very religious, so no, I'm not giving anything up for Lent.

Congrats! I think you've actually found something that is even worse than going on a diet. At least the time goes by when you can surf. Remind me never to become Catholic.
