As entertaining as the High Priestess L is, let me talk about someone else for a moment. That would be my boss, CZ.
Her real initials are not CZ, but my co-worker and I have taken to calling her CZ because she is as fake as a cubic zirconia.
CZ was not raised Catholic, but converted 20+ years ago after she met her now husband. They have a 12 year old daughter that had been going to Catechism until this year - she let her daughter quit because she didn't want to fight with her about going anymore. Other than that, she is not religious. She doesn't go to church. Ever. Not even on holidays.
Lent started this year on Wednesday, February 17th. On Friday, February 26th, CZ came to work and had not had anything for breakfast. She was “starving” by 9:30, so she went into the refrigerator and had a piece of pepperoni pizza that was left over from our office lunch from the day before. Toward the end of our morning, we decide that we're going to order lunch from the coney island. I decide that I'm going to share a coney dog meal with my co-worker, S, and CZ decides that she wants a coney dog, too. We ask the doctor what he would like and his reply was “Since it's Friday, I'll have a tuna sandwich.”
“What?!? I didn't know it was Lent!” CZ practically shouts.
“Um, Lent started last Wednesday” I reply.
CZ is visibly upset and says “Well, that's just great. Now I can't have a chili dog!”
Really?
First of all, YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS LENT!
Second, you are not religious. You haven't been to church since your brother-in-law died in 2004.
Third, you ate a piece of pepperoni pizza for breakfast because YOU DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LENT!
Gah! People like this drive me crazy. Don't act like you're this super religous, holier-than-thou angel.
You're a hypocrite, plain and simple.
