I have much guilt over the embarrassing amounts of chocolate I consumed yesterday. I was hit with a triple header-- not only was it Halloween so I had all of that candy at my house, but I work with a man whose wife is an executive for a well known chocolate company on the east coast, and he brought in loads of samples. Then I had another co-worker return from Hawaii with several boxes of those yummy chocolate covered macadamia nuts.
Interesting factoid from my co-workers chocolate executive wife: Utah leads the nation in chocolate consumption. I knew we had ice cream and Jell-O, but I didn't know we had chocolate as well. I can only stake claim to helping one of these areas achieve such great heights.
Don't move
Don't talk out-a time,
Don't think
Don't worry, everything's just fine
Just fine.
Don't grab
Don't clutch
Don't hope for too much
Don't breathe
Don't achieve
Don't grieve without leave.
Don't check, just balance on the fence
Don't answer
Don't ask
Don't try and make sense.
Don't whisper
Don't talk
Don't run if you can walk,
Don't cheat, compete
Don't miss the one beat.
Don't travel by train
Don't eat
Don't spill
Don't piss in the drain
Don't make a will.
Don't fill out any forms
Don't compensate
Don't cover
Don't crawl
Don't come around late
Don't hover at the gate
Don't take it on board
Don't fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you're getting bored
Don't change your brand
Don't listen to the band
Don't gape
Don't ape
Don't change your shape
Have another grape
Don't plead
Don't bridle
Don't shackle
Don't grind
Don't curve
Don't swerve
Don't lie, die, serve
Don't theorise, realise, polarise
Chance, dance, dismiss, apologise
Don't spy
Don't lie
Don't try
Imply
Detain
Explain
Start again

Liked your post today, C. (psst. as per your request, I'm here to tell you that I blogged today. Excuse me.)
I'm thinking the chocolate consumption is somehow related to the "allowable" pleasure chocolate brings us, vs. the pleasures of the flesh that are seen as a sin.
And the depression brought on by attending church and wearing garments daily.
belaja!! about.fucking.time. I can't wait to read it, I'm on my way!
SML- very good points on all counts!
For a moment there I thought Alaska lead ice cream sales, but it turns out they only eat the most per capita.
We didn't have any trick-or-treaters so I have *had* to eat the left-over candy. Mmmmmmmmm.
Bummer Ros, truly a bummer, ha! The fitness center at my work is offering incentives to turn in our leftover candy (which they will donate to the food bank). I may take them up on their offer. Or, I may eat it all. We'll see! :)
Eric, have you ever seen the video to Numb? I love it... of course because it's full on Edge material and I think he is the worlds greatest guitar player ever. If La ever wants to be mesmerized by a guitar player, he's the man. I can't keep my eyes off of him. If you haven't seen it and want to, let me know and I'll give you my username and password to U2.com so that you can see it.
I don't know if I qualify as a U2 Whore or not. What's it called if I'm the one paying THEM?
Eric, you know your stuff. Are you just trying to charm me? ;-)
