What I'm giving up for Lent


The snooze button.
If this isn't purgative, nothing is.
The challenge, of course, is to do it cheerfully instead of spitefully. Nothing like those Lenten sacrifices that get us really grumpy, right?
I'm also giving up comics for lent in favor of redoubling my efforts to get through St. Faustina's Divine Mercy in My Soul (which I'm loving, but which doesn't, for some reason, hold the same instant appeal as a really cool 1960's Superman or 1970's Marvel Two-in-One comic book, not to mention 1920's Popeye stories). Again, the key is to do it cheerfully instead of resentfully...
