Default Lent coming up.

I know very little about lent's real importance and such, but I am told it starts tomorrow.

Anyone else use lent to give up things just to see if they can do it, even though you aren't religious?

I have no idea what I plan to give up...so hopefully you guys spit out some good ideas.

Giving up alcohol again, but I do consider myself religious. Some co-workers and I hit the bar in my office building for one last beer during a "coffee break" this afternoon.

You're getting married? (celibacy for priests, at least, is a vow not to marry --- nuns take a vow of chastity which is what I assume you meant.)

Does the McFish sandwich count? Because those are HUGE during lent. No way can those count.
