Well, I just broke Lent

Or whatever you call it when you do something you said you wouldn't do during Lent. Good thing I'm not Catholic!

4. I thought I'd give it a try

See if it had any character building effect. I wonder if there's still time to choose something else to give up?

10. it does build character

that you can give up something for 40 days. i did dunkin donuts last year and it was tough. this year i didn't official do anything due to the fact i am going to florida for 4 days in march with a buddy and i will end up breaking anything i gave up as well as most of the ten commandments.

6. I couldn't give up meat

If God didn't want us to eat meat, he wouldn't have invented side dishes.
