Lent is counted as 40 days not counting the Sundays.
Still, those Sundays are within Lent. This is really a matter of personal commitment. You need to decide to what degree you want to fulfill your vow of abstinence or fasting.

Technically, yes. Sundays are not part of the 40 days of Lent.

I would suppose that you could have it any time you wanted. I have given up jumping off of tall buildings.

No. The idea is that you give it up for the entire forty days. :)
