Can You Feel My Pain????

Hi All,

Man did I step in it today. As some of you know, today starts the beginning of the Lenten Season for those of us of that particular faith persuasion. As you also may or may not know, part of the tradition includes making small personal sacrifices as a sign of faith....you know, like "no ice cream for 40 days" or "no TV" etc. etc.

Well, I saw this as a golden opportuninty to get my 11 year old son and 8 year old daughter to put those F*#!!! Gameboys down, so I challenged them...and....they agreed....no Gameboys for 40 days........

With one condition.

Dad can't buy a chip for 40 days. None. Nada. Zippo.

AAaaaarrrggghhhhhh!!!!!

Is it too late to convert? Anyway, please help me make it through this. Don't put ANYTHING good up here or on eBay for a bit. DONT TEMPT ME!!!!! It is all for a good cause, lol.

BTW, I bid on about 20 chips last night......had to get them in under the wire!
