LOL! If it makes you feel better, I was raised Catholic and I *still* have a hard time remembering to observe it.
While I don't exactly view the same way you do [personally, it's more about remembering the God/Jesus' sacrifice for us, etc], it is a really good time to get started on changing bad habits - particularly since it's not a specifically a *thing* you have to give up, so it works to give up a habit too.
Also, if I may ask, why did you decide to convert? [I apologize if it's rude to ask, I just always hear the "Screw it! I totes left Catholicism!" and never "I converted to it" so...I'm being nosy. ^^;;]
Re: Do you observe Lent? if so, what are you giving up this year?
