    What is lent? I don't really get this? Is it some kind of religious thing?

    Yep, it's some kind of religious thing. Not to sure which branch of Christianity it is. Catholic?
    I think you're meant to give up something precious to you. Once again, no idea how long this goes for. A month?

    If it makes you feel any better, I got so drunk last night that it's impossible for me to move without getting sick. And it's been lasting til now (8pm).
    Wish I would've stayed sober last ngiht.
