Ah ain't Cathy-lick but Ah'm givin' up on givin' up 'till East'r.
Honestly, instead of giving anything up, I took on something.

What I've Given Up
2012: soda (still rarely drink it)
2013: chocolate (still love it - barely eat it)
2014: alcohol (I now have a fully stocked bar of bourbon, whiskey, and scotch)
2015: social media (no facebook/twitter/instagram - I'm rarely on now)
2016: fast food (it makes me sick now)

This year, I decided to take something on!
2017: Run two miles every day... we're doing great so far and it's moving me closer to my total weight loss goal!

Right?! The moment after Easter was over, I was ready. My most recent additions to the bar are JW - Double Black, Crown Royal - Northern Harvest Rye, Angel's Envy. There's so much more. Then again, when you're working on a PhD and working full time outside of providing... you need a stiff drink once in a while. Among other things *laughs*
I gave up amps also, but one called me and she really needed to see me, and that she really missed me, and I was really special. I thought the Lord would understand under these circumstances. I hope i made the right decision. Funny there was noises cumming from the room when I got there. She must have had a the TV on a porn channel.
As a lapse Catholic - this is too funny!

Old Tony’s Lent Confession


So Father D’Amico could tell that Tony was really upset, almost to the point of crying as he entered the confessional. After the standard opening of “Forgive me Father for I have sinned…etc “ The priest started..

Priest: I can tell you’re upset, Tony. I can even hear you wringing your hands. What’s the problem?

Tony: I was giving up sex for lent and I broke my vow. I thought at my age it would easy but I broke my vow and I KNOW you’re gonna throw us out of the Catholic Church!

Priest (trying not to laugh): Well, breaking your vow is serious. I’m disappointed in you.

Tony: Yeah, I am too but I couldn’t help myself. It had already been a long time even before Lent. But my little Rosa was bent over finding something to make for dinner at it just came over me. Looking at her nice round behind made me crazy. I ran over, flipped up her skirt and …. Bod-a-bing bod-a-boom and I KNOW you’re gonna throw us out of the church!!

Priest: Ok. Just settle down. You can do a standard penitence with maybe a little extra in the donation plate. You and Rosa have always been good people. Why do you think we’d kick you out of the church?

Tony: Well, they threw us out of the H-E-B!
