h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

My boss has just given us a chocolate Easter egg for Easter (despite us all saying several times we would rather her not give us anything at all, as the boys aren't that fond of chocolate and I eat it like a starving wolf).

I've already eaten half of the egg, plus both the Creme Eggs inside. I've eaten so much sugar that I feel queasy. So why am I trying to convince myself that I should eat the other half?

Because it's there.

It's the well-known chocolate addiction.

Yes to both. It's burning a hole in my brain even though it's in the filing cabinet (that's where I keep all of my personal stuff, by the way, I've not hidden it in there on purpose.

It's dying down a little now. I got distracted, which helps. And soon I will be at home at it will still be locked in the cabinet here! Woo!

It's why I don't buy any chocolate. Once it is here I feel obliged to eat it. Can't have it go to waste, can I?

I don't crave it if it's not around. Even this morning when I stood by the chocolate stand, waiting to pay for my milk I looked over it but didn't feel the compulsion to buy it.

Shame I can't say the same thing if it's in my posession...

It's exactly the same here. Good job I was sacked last year, the boss used to give us a large chocolate Easter egg filled with lots of pralines.

Don't like chocolate. I'm getting a large variety of chilli products for Easter...
