So pancake day has rolled around again in one of the scariestly speedy passages of time yet (seriously, i’ll be 25 by the time i’ve finished writing this post at this rate) and I fully intend to enjoy the pancake-y goodness… I’m also making boeuf bourguignon for good measure, cos my pancake days are classy ^.^
Though this year has also brought consideration of actually not doing something for lent… being somewhat not religious I don’t see this as some representation of wwjd or whyever the hell people do things like stop inhaling cocaine till easter. However I have acchieved not eating chocolate once for lent and it gave me a great deal of satisfaction and schizz. Though since then I haven’t done so, usually with the excuse that lent usually covers my birthday, and no one wants to spend they’re birthday wishing they hadn’t given up the cake all their friends are now smeared in (unfortunately my party’s don’t actually end in cake fights, but one can dream- actually one did end in a potato fight… so maybe with time…)
I’ve always being a completionist when gaming so I don’t see how real life should be much different, so now I’m going for the abstinence trophy of life by once again ignoring sweets, chocolate and other such things for forty days and nights (mainly to combat that ‘in-a-relationship’ weight i’ve been adding on for like a year now). The biggest obstacle for me is having to give up chocolate related cereal (and anyone who knows me should know I don’t do other kinds of cereal) so I went a bit nuts and bought some bran flakes, which I tried this morning only to remember that they’re actually called bland flakes and a clever marketing strategy has thus far prevented a typo correction.
So anyway tomorrow starts a long time of suffering for no reason other than i’m a saddest apparently :-/
God this was an actual blog post about life and shit rather than me railing on something I hate… I must be developing… shit
