Ash Wednesday...

Im not very religious at all..and for the life of me i was unable to remember the meaning of why i kept seeing things about ash wednesday on facebook...i really am a bit slow at times...but ive figured it out now after reading someone elses blog..duh me...but pretty much ash wed is the start of lent..again something that holds no meaning whats so ever for me..but i always spend a bit of time wondering what i would give up..wondering if i could go an actual 40 days without something that i absouletely use/need/want on a daily basis..that and i have no real idea what i would give up...ha i could give up sex but that would last all of like a couple days...but really what is the point behind having to give something up?  i dont think i understand it enough to do it..or do it correctly..out of the blue im gonna just randomly pick one thing to give up...hmm i may die in the process because i of course would go overboard majorly..so i dont know...not really...im not even sure what the point is for this post really...i think my head has just been on over drive lately..annnnnd i wont get into what it is that will help me calm my nerves...ugh..im ready for the weekend and i have like done nothing remotely interesting this week!  essh
