Lent Day 2

A fun, sweet little article that made me want to make my own "Life Lessons" list.

Here's today's information regarding how people are created, courtesy of the Minimalist:
"You do go 'poof' in your mother's body, and then you are just a tiny dot and you grow."
We were talking about interesting facts about Abe Lincoln, and he knew that he had to come up with one more before he could go to lunch, and his fact was going to be "He was born." I made the comment "of course he was born...he didn't just appear on Earth." I should have known that this was the turn this conversation would take!

Oh, and by the way, if the President were coming to my class, he'd be served applesauce, turkey, steak, macaroni and cheese, and of course, soup and peas.

As for my own personal Lent, I'm doing pretty well. I don't have bad headaches, thanks to the discovery that one Excedrin has the same amount of caffiene as one Mt. Dew. I'm not motivated to do anything today, but I don't necessarily know if that's related to the caffiene. I think I'm just not motivated. As with every Lent season, I dreamt last night that I goofed up and drank a can of Coke. Why is it that I have that dream every year? It's weird.

I need to get refocused. I intended to do some studying in relation to Lent and some journaling, and I haven't done much of that. I need to get into that tonight. I have some pretty hefty questions to answer, thanks to an old acquaintance's blog. They're heavy questions that every Christian should ask themselves, but who really ever wants to sit down and ask themselves what they think is the single biggest problem in the church and such like that? I'm also intending to read some of the Psalms and a read a couple of books, but instead, I'm just watching Pride and Prejudice and spending too much time on the computer...

With that, this magazine queen (yay! Aunt Cara found my charm!) is signing off for the moment...
