Lent

I've finally decided what I will give up for Lent, a Catholic holiday where you "give something up" for 40 days - a quasi fast. Lately, I've spent a lot of time mindlessly watching TV just because I didn't feel like doing anything productive. So, I'm going to give up TV. There have to be ground rules of course. I can watch DVD's. I can also watch anything extraordinary, e.g. State of the Union address, something a roommate really wants me to see, etc. The 21st of March will be the next time I turn on a television set.
