No cake on Thursdays!

MeMyCatsandI

My office is really big on cake. Every time someone comes or goes, has a birthday or promotion, gets married or divorced, has a baby, gets a puppy, or steps on a nail....there is cake. And with cake comes frosting. My BIGGEST weakness in life! One lick and I'm out of control. There is NO such thing as moderation for me when it comes to frosting.

Since most of these cake events seem to happen on Thursdays, I have made a new rule for myself. I no longer eat cake on Thursdays. Unfortunately, I have trained my co-workers too well. They always save me a corner piece so I can get the most frosting bang for the cake buck. As I walked into the break room, I was greeted by the Admin Asst. who said "I told them to give you that corner piece with the big frosting balloon!"

Oy vay! I had to tell her my new rule. No cake on Thursdays! And then I had to tell every other person who was completely confused by the frosting-loving-cake-hog sitting without a plate of cake. I don't eat cake on Thursdays I told them.

It was excruciating. But I did it! I did NOT eat cake! Or frosting. But really, how could I? After all, it's Thursday! And I don't eat cake on Thursdays.
