So, one of the guys brought in a HUGE chocolate cake into the office today.

At first, I resisted. Then, I decided that I would allow myself a very small joyful piece. I took a tiny bite. . .

and IT WAS CRAP!

The cake was dry dry dry, and the icing was greasy greasy greasy! Utterly disgusting.

I threw the rest of my portion in the trash. I can't recall the last time I said "no" to chocolate cake!

[and yes, I waited until the guy who brought it was out of the room before I ditched it!]

    AWesome! You knew yourself well enough to know that you could stop yourself... and then when you had it and it wasnt everything you thought it would be, you decided it wasnt worth it. What a healthy outlook on life... I love it!

    It surprises me how many times I'll think I want something and it's not as good as I was expecting. Before I would eat it anyway but not anymore. :)
