Resisting the Desk of Temptation: FAIL
In support of my friend Richard's giving up of fast food for Lent, I decided to refrain from consuming a) pimped out coffee, b) sugary, carb breakfast pastries and c) the desk of temptation candy for the same time period.
Well, Monday morning I had a pimped out coffee, I have yet to consume a sugary breakfast pastry and dang it, the desk of temptation got the best of me two days in a row now. What is the desk of temptation? One of the exec assistants keeps a desk full of sweet treats...which included a giant platter of Easter goodness...starting Monday. Which I can't keep away from, since I have to walk past it every time I go to my desk. DOH. I've consumed about 20 mini malted milk balls, one Crunch mini egg and one (soon to be two) mini white chocolate Reese's eggs. DANG IT. The desk has hold of my sweet tooth. In the word of a dear friend of mine....blurg. And yes, I write all my sweet-snagging into my food journal so it doesn't go unnoted, but still. I clearly need to find an alternative route to get out of my workspace without seeing (or smelling) all of the tasty goodness the desk of temptation has to offer.
