<p>Yay!! At least until tomorrow morning.</p>
<p>As y&#8217;all know, I go all out for Lent. I give up booze, and junk food, and sweets, and sodas, and fatty foods. This makes for a very cranky Sith Empress for a few days, and then I am back to my normal Death Star-shiny self. One good thing about giving up so much stuff is the lightness of being. By that, I mean the loss of holiday pounds that invariable stick around after the holidays like an unwanted guest.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m already looking forward to Easter Sunday.</p>

<p>So go and have some fun, and enjoy festivities and drink and food and revelry. Catch some beads and sing along. For tomorrow will come soon enough.</p>
<p>And may your morning be free of nausea and headaches 😀</p>
