I was asked what I was giving up for lent, and immediately I quipped: guilt.
So I stopped to think about it. What do I love so much that would be a sacrifice? Well, there are quite a few things, but I stuck with basics -- food. I thought chocolate or ice cream, but my birthday is during lent and I think that I should be allowed to have chocolate and ice cream.
Diet soda, maybe? But I've been cutting that down, so I'm already doing that. Is it truly a sacrifice if I'm already doing it? Not, really.
I pondered and pondered. Then it hit me. Beer. I'm going to give up beer for Lent. I love beer, and I drank two great ones tonight: Yard's Love Stout and Magic Hat's HI.P.A.
So in addition to getting into work by 9am, I am going to give up beer for Lent.
God help us.
