If you happen to be in one of the major Brazilian cities or in Venice or closer to home in New Orleans, you might not get much rest today or sleep this evening. Why? It's Mardi Gras  or Shrove Tuesday or Fat Tuesday, and it's the eve of Ash Wednesday when carnival prevails in a number of cities worldwide where this is a distinct Catholic population. Carnelevarium was the throwing out of meat and meat products as well as cheese and other dairy products in anticipation of a stricter diet of fish and other non-meat products. It is a day of revelry, of partying, of purging - all in anticipation of the forty days of penitence prior to Eater. "Remember, man, you are dust and unto dust you shall return." (The Liturgy of Ash Wednesday)
