But this year Maddy told me not to do anything that will distract from the festivities of our trip. I might give up something afterwards, depending.
I'd go directly to the Pope, ask him for a special dispensation for your trip.. since you're going to be in Europe anyway.

I'm actually looking forward to it. I'm quite good at not doing something if I have a reason.

I'm not a Christian, but I've given things up in the name of Lent.
