Well, one of them anyway. Being allergic to chocolate should be against the law!! Wheat and oranges do it too but I digress.
So. I went to the store for cat food because we have So Many Cats between the tame and the ferals. Most unfairly, there were *chocolate bars* at the self checkout. The price on two was pretty good. Got home and thought, I can take a small chocolate hit and be okay. I should have listened to myself! But no. I ate one and followed it with the other. 🤦🏽♀️
I know better, I do. But I’m obviously an addict. I can’t say no if it’s in the house. When Susi has it, she takes it upstairs to her room and I’m somewhat saved but I’m clearly not safe enough to be left alone in a grocery store.
I went cold turkey on quitting smokes years ago. Now I’m applying that same method to chocolate. I can’t have even a nibble because it’s never a nibble. It’s an outright inhale. It’s been quiet here because I ate the forbidden and I LIKED it! Ya, well, yesterday I felt like a thousand cats ran me over in the middle of a very busy road. Today’s a lot better but I’m still toxified. That’s that then. I’m restricted from chocolate forevermore. Sigh and Thank Goddess for being smart enough to know when enough IS enough!! It’s taken literally decades to arrive at this station. Sometimes I’m a real slow learner but I eventually do. I have. 🤣🤣🤣
I’m going to make a couple whisks now and think about my bad decision to eat naughty and my really good decision to quit being a dope. 🥰
