I did that.
November 8th, 2010
Imagine this:
You’re on a run with your little brother and run quite a challenging course of rolling hills in 30 degree weather. You think you’ve been running for 10 miles and decided to take a shortcut home at the suggestion of your brother. That shortcut, much to your surprise, takes your right into the heart of a train yard. You find yourself forging your way through briers, thorns, and underneath train cars. (P.S. turns out you only ran for 6.5 miles)
I did that.
Imagine this:
It’s Monday, and the work day seems long. You’re craving chocolate so on a lunch trip to the grocery store you stand in line wondering if you want Peanut MnM’s or Twix. And then you think, “it’s Monday, and it’s November”, so you get both.
Yea, I did that.
Imagine this:
While you’re checking out at the store, there sit your two candy bars amidst the plethora of organic and fresh groceries. When the cashier asks if you want the candy out of the bag, you say “no”, sincerely hoping that she doesn’t think they are for you and that you look like you have two children awaiting you at home and you’re the kind of mom who would surprise her little angels with a sweet treat. After all, it is Monday and it is November.
Yup, I did that, too.
Imagine this:
You down the Peanut MnM’s in about 2.5 seconds, but, after much deliberation, save your beloved Twix for a special occasion. That special occasion? Dessert for two with your husband.
And I did that, too!
Do you ever have 2-candy-bars-a-day kind of days? Are they usually Mondays?!

Ha. I have two-cans-of-mt-dew days. That is my version of a candybar day! Although I refuse to drink Mt Dew after 3pm, so I know I’m in trouble if its a two-canner kind of day!
Hilarious post by the way…glad you survived the train yard and I am so jealous that you run with the baby bro!
OOoo I sometimes have those soda days, too. But it’s usually Ginger Ale!! And I dont get to run with my little bro too much. He’s in Philly and I’m in Pittsburgh!
I’m having that kind of day today…I just haven’t been able to get to a store yet! =P
Hope your day got better—or you got to the store!!
I’ve definitely had a few of those days lately! I will usually justify a big full fat Starbucks latte (and biscotti!) on those kind of mornings. It just makes me feel a little better to treat myself like that.
Mmmm! I do love a good ole’ trip to Starbucks. I do that in the mornings sometimes. But I need extra time to do that..and days when I need a Starbucks drink, I usually don’t have the time! Darn it!
I have two candy bar days – recently they have been quite frequently.
I love Twix – they are one of my two favorite candies – the other is kit kat. mmmmm…
oooo the other week, Dave and I bought a bag of fun sized kit kats! It was dangerous!
Hahaha! This post made my day and I have had my fair share of two candy bar days. Mine usually include Milk Ways and Carmello’s:)
You’re making me hungry!
hahaha . <3
I couldn't stop eating cookie bites today. This whole experimenting with baking thing is going to get me into trouble. I keep telling myself the cookies are fuel since I'm training for a half marathon. haha.
Those looked so good! Send some to me?!
This is why I love you, hilarious and blunt! My kind of woman!! I go with the half dozen spoons full of dark chocolate PB. We have a spoon dedicated to just that, for real!
Nice! We’re out of dark chocolate PB. Not good. Not good.
I have been having those days quite a bit in the past week. I think it’s the onset of extremely cold weather. Whenever the first winter weather hits I begin to slide down a slippery slope of comfort foods and chocolate. I’m dealing with that right now and hope that it doesn’t last long. I may be in a sugar coma right now, haha..
Hahahah I live my life in a sugar coma!
Haha, I have those days often. I’ve been eating Swedish Fish like crazy leftover from Halloween. I love them.
I LOVE Swedish Fish!!!!
Yes. and. Yes. Sometimes they’re cruddy days turned into great ones
Hahah with a little help from chocolate!!
you inherit this from me! except you waitied til dinner!!!! love ya!
Heheh I inherited a lot from you..and I like that!
I don’t like candy, but I’ve definitely had a 2 dark chocolate bar day
… more like everyday!
