I basically lifted the sidebar poll from The Anchoress.
Part of my procrastination effort with respect to my take-home exams.
So . . . what about you?

Why Gannet? Why Search the Sea?
- Gannet Girl
- Gannets are enormous and sleek creamy-white seabirds, with black wingtips, yellow heads and necks, and startlingly outlined eyes. They nest on the rocky cliffs of the European and North American coasts of the North Atlantic and, once grown, spend their days sailing across the ocean. The acrobatics by which they make their living ~ steep climbs into the air and speedy plunges straight into the sea ~ are rivaled only by those of pelicans. What better metaphor for a sweeping search of one's life choices and opportunities than a gannet extended above the waves, a regal and yet restless surveyor of the vast ocean surface? The gannet reminds us that life is an adventure in both beauty and profound unease, and that the sea itself is limitless in its textures and possibilities.

Thanks for reminding me. it has been a long couple weeks at the office in many ways, or has it been even longer????
I voted Catholic, though the ashes were received with my daughter at our lovely Episcopal parish. But it didn't seem to come up...maybe I clicked Pisky by mistake?
Anyway, good luck on the test, and Lenten blessings.
For the purposes of this poll, voted Episcopalian... well, I would be if I didn't live in the land where it all started back in 1558, or whenever you reckon it from ;-)
I voted presbyterian but I attend an episcopal church currently.
I did not get ashes today. Ashes would have helped.
No time anymore.
Well, GG, you know the story with me and ashes.
But we did go to the Ash Wednesday service and take communion.
I voted Episcopalian...does it make a difference that I got them three times? I mean, because I did three services?
I almost didn't make it to church today but your earlier post inspired me. It was a tight fit between work and class tonight but I'm glad I went.
I guess I'm the only Catholic because Sophia posted earlier that she picked that by mistake.
No I didn't but I was thinking about it. (Never even did that before...)

There are a lot of Episcopalians over here!
I'm glad you linked at RevGals' Friday Five, so I came back and noticed the survey. Fun!
