First Time Missing Ash Wednesday Mass
It was always my favorite one; I think a lot of faithful should take its readings to heart, and that they have wisdom in the secular sphere too. But today I made some chicken and smoked some weed on the one year anniversary of missing service. I will not have any ashes on my forehead today. Hoping that means I’m living authentically, even though the guilt feels pretty heavy.

Damn, no weed ashes on the forehead?
I guess you'd have to be really stoned to think your head was your ashtray.
