So Lent has officially started. I've never really participated in Lent before. Actually, to be honest, I had never even heard about Lent until two years ago. So I spent a long time trying to figure out what I was going to give up. I was planning on giving up caffeine, until I realized that the video game marathon was during Lent. (Caffeine is going to have to be my best friend during those few days.) For awhile, I was thinking about just giving up on Lent and doing something next year, but then I got an idea. I don't necessarily have to give up something physical for Lent. So this year, I'm giving up depression. I'm going to use Lent to jump-start my faith and my life.
In other news, I really messed up my back today.
I was in the room earlier when Josh and I started pushing each other back and forth, like we often do. Then all of the sudden there was an excruciating pain in my back. When I tried to stretch out my back, it just got worse. It's been hurting since then, and it even kept me from going to the small group meeting tonight. If it isn't much better by tomorrow, I think I'll tell my parents and go to the hospital. (I can't wait for my dad to freak out . . .)
