Where the hell did this come from?!

Anna Marie just reminded me that next Wednesday is Ash Wednesday. For those of you not familiar with Christian traditions, Ash Wednesday kicks off the season of Lent, aka Give Up Something You Really Love for Forty Days. This is supposed to symbolize or be in remembrance of Jesus' forty days in the desert. For the past two years I've given up pop (or maybe I gave up coffee last year...hmmm) and I've done really well. However...I'm thinking not so much on the pop front this year. So what does one give up? Anna Marie said she's giving up Facebook (I panicked before she reminded me there was still MSN....then I calmed down). But I don't think I could do that. I'd start twitching within an hour if not properly distracted. So....

Possible List of Things Sarah Will and Will Not Give Up:

1. Fast food: While probably a good idea since I'm getting a little soft around the midsection, this probably won't happen. While I don't eat alot of it in the first place, I'd hate to rule it out as an option completely because then I'd actually need it for something. So...no go.

2. Aaron: Not happening. There is no way I'm giving up Aaron time.

3. Myspace: Uhhh...yeah...no.

4. Coffee: This is doable. I don't really drink it and I don't think I'd even notice it was gone.

5. Pop: Eh. Maybe. I'm kind of addicted to Dr. Pepper though.

6. Ice Cream: Why would I give up ice cream?????????

7. TV: Uh..no. Besides, it would be too hard to stay away from.

8. Homework: I would LOVE to give this up. However, my GPA would hate me more than it already does.

9. Text Messaging: I'd DIE. Besides, I rarely ever TALK to people on the phone anymore. 

Hmmm.....well....looks like coffee is getting the boot til Easter. 

Sorry coffee.
