Lent* is officially here and I find myself inspired to give something upβbut so soooo many items to choose from. Perhaps you could adjudicate among the following options for me to forgo for 40 days.
β Speaking in tongues to the neighborhood cats
β Drinking the water in Mexico
β Pretending to flinch when someone comes up behind me
β Sardines (alt give-up: Kale)
β Polishing my fake fruit
β Making prank “citizens arrests”Β
β Doing my famous (but much beloved) Elvis impersonation (“Thankyewverymuch”)
β Vigilante homeland security operations
β Vigilante freeway “highway patrol” operations
β Random “hand origami” creations
β Breathing underwater (I’ve only mastered the “breathing out” part to date)
β Performing taxidermy experiments on my stuffed animals
β Bringing my recipe for “Smoke-infused Cajun Lenten Perch” (basically, perch that is flaming on the stove due to neglect) to Lenten parties
β Using the Jedi mind trick on snakes (it’s good to learn from mistakes)
Go for broke and give up all of them! Well, maybe not the Elvis impersonation.

π I gave up Instagram. As a millennial who’s so plugged in to technology, this was actually a little difficult for me.
Did you replace it with something else…like SnapChat or some other DM? Or are you going cold turkey on this.
No snapchat. Just until Easter. I don’t get on social media too often. The only thing I gave up cold Turkey was soda.
