2. Bless his heart. Dave remembered Valentine's Day, and showed up from Walgreens today with my Zyrtec and a box of Whitman's chocolate-caramel turtles as well as a Whitman's Sampler.
   
   What'd I put off for Lent?
   
   Yep, That's right, chocolate.
   
   (I didn't remind him.)

You *could* restrict Lent to daylight hours ONLY...that let's you be observant AND be smitten :)

Redheads trump Lent.

Every time.

I would make a sincere theological argument that sharing chocolate with David is a higher commandment than adhering to a Lenten sacrifice. Love and community are both explicitly commanded by God Himself, whereas Lenten fasting is a purely human creation. He did something for you in a spirit of love, and it would be churlish of you to shelve it or put it aside for another month.

So enjoy the chocolates with a clear conscience and a cheerful heart, and please tell David hello for me. :)
