I went to church yesterday for Ash Wednesday but I forgot to decide what I am going to give up for Lent.
I gave up the internet last year for Lent and I no longer have a myspace or a facebook. I don't want to repeat that and there wouldn't be much internet to give up anyway.
I don't eat out all that much and I haven't gone to fast food in a loooooong time. I don't drink soda or eat junk food on a regular basis. The only thing I could think of was chocolate but that is cliche and I don't buy that much chocolate.
So I have been pondering and decided I am going to give up TV shows. Movies are ok to watch, but not more than a couple times a week. TV shows on DVD are not allowed. Boyfriend will be also giving up TV. I have gotten into the habit of turning the TV on when I start my homework. I don't usually pay attention to it but leaving it on like that is a waste of money and electricity.
Soo... here we go! No TV for 40 days!
Lent
