Wow, it's Lent!
I am far from the world's most enthusiastic supporter of Catholicism, but it was a significant part of my rearing, and there are things I do like about it. I am, for instance, totally down with fasting in any form. I think there is a lot of value in the sequestering of one's will and wants to that of, if not necessarily a "higher power," something outside and beyond oneself. It exercises humility and empowerment, and I know that I do not tend to appreciably appreciate things until they are no longer around to appreciate. So I am going to be following that portion of Lent and imposing rules upon myself which I am to follow until Easter Sunday (April 24th).
If you know what I gave up my Senior year of high school, you know what I am attempting to do again. I may stop being coy about it as the season progresses, but a boy has to have some secrets~
Also, no chocolate, because it makes those Cadbury eggs on Easter morning taste fucking divine.
I should probably make an effort to do something extra as well, but I have no ideas yet.
