A Halloween rant
What was I thinking?
Here I am, trying to lose some weight, and this week I bought nine bags of Halloween candy to give out tonight - and I bought only my favorite kinds of candy. Am I insane? I mean, here was my chance to have some non-tempting candy around the house for a couple of days, and I blew it. I could have bought Almond Joys, Peppermint Patties, Nestle's Crunch, candy corn...I can resist all of those 'til the cows come home. That candy would have sat here, uneaten, in my big plastic cauldron until tonight, and the kids on my block would have been just as appreciative of it.
But noooo, I had to go buy Baby Ruths, and Butterfingers, and Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. Do you know how many Baby Ruths I've eaten over the past few days? Peanut Butter Cups?
What the hell was I thinking?
