Mini-Lent

Ross and I decided to give up drinking for a little while - not because we have evolved into miserable, homeless alcoholics or anything like that, but because we end up spending a lot of money on going out for beers when we should be coming up with better things to do. Initially, we were going to give up drinking for Lent, but then I realized that St. Patrick's Day and Lent don't work well together, and since I'm going to Dublin in March, it's probably not going to happen.

Now, we have invented mini-Lent, and are not drinking until St. Patrick's Day. We're already experiencing effects: we don't really care that it's the weekend, and are being extremely productive. It's horrible.
