Falling off the wagon...

Two weeks ago I decided to give up alcohol and chocolate for a month.

With the alcohol, I lasted nine days until my dad convinced me that a glass of red wine was medicinal (although I was recovering from a migraine and actually didn't feel well enough to drink more than a few sips). The following day, a glass of red just seemed so appealing after dealing with the idiot in my tutorial.

With the chocolate I lasted about 12 days, with the small exception of a mini Mars Bar after donating blood (as Donna said, who can fault me for taking sustenance from chocolate after saving someone's life??)

Today I am going to climb back on the wagon. I wonder how long I'll manage to stay on this time...

Given that I've stayed away from chocolate for more than three weeks, I'm so looking down my nose at you right now! ;-)

Maybe next Lent I'll give up alcohol for a bit more of a challenge. Maybe.
