My name is Jonet, and I am no longer an alcohlic

Well, I guess I never was...

Today is Ash Wed. and I am officially in the Lenton Season. For my journey to the cross, I have decided that I will stop drinking. Bleh. I'm not sure how the next 40 days will go, but what I do know is that they will be boring.

I'm not sure how I came to the conclusion that alcohol was the right choice, I think it was when Jesus mentioned it and I immediatly screamed NO! Lol. I went to Patty's last night with Damon, and he, Nick, Juan and myself made my last toast for the next month and a half. Here's a list of what I'll be missing:



  • Friday Nights with the homomies

  • Brunch

  • Brunch after the AIDS walk

  • Sunday night with the Fam

  • My personality

  • My will to Live

  • St. Patrick's Day

  • My sanity

How bad can things get? Not sure yet, I just hope that these next days pass quickly and painlessly. Part of me feels like this will be a simple task, I really only drink once to twice a week, but the other part of me feels like this will be quite eye openning. And I can spend all this new found free time meditating on the 40 days leading up to the greatest moment in history, and what it all really means. I will spend this time getting to know the journey to eternal life, and preparing myself for SHEaster. Patty said that I should use this time to work out a ton and get super thin for the festivities again this year so I say let's gitrdun.
