Let's see....what could I give up? Diet Pepsi? NEVER! Um, Facebook? Yeah, right. TV? Well, I haven't watched much anyway, so that could be do-able. How about just flaky men (or men in general)? Yeah, that could work. What are they doing for me lately anyway, except making me cry? Not a whole lot, that's for sure.

What Could I Give Up?
I've always been fascinated by people who celebrate Lent - those who give away their favorite habits for a set period of time. When I was little I had a friend who gave up sugar (oh, the horror!) and a few years ago another friend gave up alcohol (double horror!). Now, granted, I don't technically celebrate Lent, but perhaps I should. Let's see....what could I give up? Diet Pepsi? NEVER! Um, Facebook? Yeah, right. TV? Well, I haven't watched much anyway, so that could be do-able. How about just flaky men (or men in general)? Yeah, that could work. What are they doing for me lately anyway, except making me cry?

i'm no lent celebrater (although i've been tempted) but i believe the point is to give up something that would be hard for you - like a real sacrifice. maybe that's why i've never done it. isn't today mardi gras? so wouldn't we be done if we were doing it? maybe i can give something up for the rest of today and call it good. =) by the way, giving up flaky men forever is not a bad idea. oh and for that matter - giving up flaky people is a good idea. male or female.
