Lent Sucks.

Day Nine of no pop. Candy's easy to give up. It was one of those addictions-on-the-rise that was easy to curb (and let's face it, both my ass and I can go without a king-size Nutrageous). But this nonsense of sugar-free lemonade that Arby's has makes me dream of happier times when decision making on beverages were 'Pepsi, Wild Cherry Pepsi or Mountain Dew' and not 'Sugar-Free Lemonade or...um, ice water'.

Side note: what the hell kind of name is Arby? Yes I know that it stood for the founders the Raffel Brothers & Roast Beef. R.B. Arby's. However you know some freak is naming their kid after fast food roast beef. Sure, I can't find it on babynames.com, but there's someone out ther named Arby and I want to meet you, share my condolences, meet your parents and give them a swirly for their parenting fail.

Dude, maybe this isn't just like Jesus suffering in the desert for 40 years until he parted the Red Sea, but it's pretty damn close.

And if you didn't get the above joke, don't talk to me ever again.
