    Well for me anyways.
    As I live under my parents roof I have to respect their rule, no music or activity during this day out of respect for Jesus dying on this day.

    A day without music is like a day without food.

    Huh... I've never heard of this. And I come from the Bible Belt with a very religious mom. I'm thinking that's just something your mom does, not that it's dictated by religion specifically. You think?

    Yeah she has her own take on being Catholic.
    Most of her rules are not even set out in the bible.

    It is 9am here, great the long boring day begins.

  • Reminds me of the movie Footloose: For the characters in the film, dancing was banned by some religious tenet.

    Go the storm!!!!!!!!! Now I just gotta hope the Broncos can pull thier finger out tomorrow :?

    Well I spent most of the day at redcliffe at the Festival of Sails for the start of the Brisbane to Gladstone race. Beautiful day, bloody crowded but moreton bay is beautiful and all of those sails dotted along the water with moreton island as the backdrop was something special.

    Came home to garlic prawns on the barbie, seafood salad and a few cc"s and dry to wash it all down....awesome! :D

    Have to work tonight, you lucky people. Interestingly enough, at the local RC funded school, there are work men today (as it's holiday time) working on a new office suite for the staff. My parents are christian, as am I but both of them have been doing things today as dad works from home and mum likes to bake on her days off:) just sitting here listening to MEN booleg from last year...can't have a smoke in a tree, but I can go outside to do that. (cigarette only):)
    How I choose to feel is how I am...I will not lose my faith, It's an inside job today.
