40 days and 40 nights
I'm on day one. Blame Verres.

I did it, and succeeded (with, ahem, motivation ) about this time last year, but I'm taking sociology now.

Wish me luck!!

Formerly elijah btw

Whaleboy is a nickname given to him because he made an insulting joke about someone with a vicious tongue.

Challenging. If you knew us, you'd understand why that would earn you three simultaneous slaps.

Well... you have to guess what it refers to... and guess again after day 14

As I recall, I made no direct challenge...you simply offered to try it at the same time as me. Not that I lasted long

don't think about sex. take lots of medication, specifically, ssris or any of a number of pharmaceuticals which kill libido.

then you won't find it so difficult after all.

in that case, think about sex, but drink a lot. then the stuff won't work, so you're safe there.

plus, you'll be happily boozed up for about a month.
