Which means that I won't be giving up beer this spring.
Which means I won't be losing any weight.
Which means I'll still hear conversations like this in my house:
Teen (to father): I did 30 push ups.
Father: So? I did 30 with Ten-Year Old on my back.
Teen: Oh yeah, I did 30 with Thirteen-Year Old on my back.
Father: Really? Well, I did 30 with Mom on my back.
Teen: Wow! I can't beat that.

The lack of beer sharing that would be going on in my house after an exchange like that would make some dude's (who participated in that exchage) head spin.
Wow, look like some good beers to sample there... Although giving up things isn't a big practice in my tradition, I alternate between giving up liver and green beans for lent, just in case my Catholic friends are right.
But beer is soo good
Mmm... Dogfish Head.

You can observe Lent on your own, though. Be a rebel!
This atheist might give up something for Lent after all - her gym membership!
We do observe Lent and I still didn't give up my alcohol:)
HA! That's great! Well, I DID give beer up for Lent this year. It's going okay so far, only b/c I have my wine. I gave up all alcohol a few years ago. I was ONE bitchy mama for 45 days!!!
Oh yeah, well I'm a push over when the wifey-poo's on my back...
Look at it this way, your religious views won't get in the way of a good buzz.
Speak of the devil...I'm starting a new workout today. And no...not lifting more beer towards my face sadly.
I gave up burritos for Lent which would seemingly mean that I should lose weight but really I lost weight when I ate burritos because I would strewn it out later. I'm talking about diarrhea here. Just in case I was not clear :)
Day 13 of no meat. Only 33 more to go. Enjoy the beer. Cheers!!
Love the dialogue.

Heathen that I am, I just can't fathom Jesus being all ecstatic that someone gave up beer for Lent. Now wine, well that's different.
well I say since the "men" in your house seem to be so "fit" they should do all the running to get the beer for you. besides, if you're drinking you're already doing arm curls, and that totally counts as a workout! :)
What about doing 100 while on my back?
Hee hee, Meg where im from if you even drink beer you're already condemned, which is why i always make a point to crack a cold one when one or two of the bible thumpers comes a'callin.
