Ash Wednesday

So its Ash Wednesday which I realized today means that I can't eat meat on Fridays. It's real easy not to eat meat in New Orleans on Fridays. Tons of seafood and boiled crawfish ... its almost like a blessing. Not a big deal at all. Well now that I live in central Florida its not so easy. Some seafood but not like the abundance in New Orleans. Not that I am really a practicing Catholic or anything but I do try to abide by these rules ... not exactly sure why though. I must think in the back of my brain that I won't go to hell if I just don't eat meat on Fridays during Lent. Oh well ... I guess we shall see on that one.
