  3. OMG, I can't decide which is my favorite. The girl scout thing actually happened to me. I even had a post about how I mean to Girl Scouts and don't buy their stuff.

    Those are funny, my friend. All are very good signs that it is not going to be a good weight loss day. :)

  4. List was inspired by fact that I bought daughter a box of those big cookies from Costco for a party she was attending. Of course, she forgot the cookies, so they spent the entire weekend on my kitchen table.

    I didn't eat any, but I did assign different voices and unique personalities to each individual cookie. Forced her to take them to school with her this morning because they were all talking to me non-stop.

  5. Fondue Throwdown sounds slightly erotic.

  9. So which was it that happened to you, Jack??? Something must have inspired the list! If it's any help, my scales cackle at me every morning - it's their way of messing with my head. There's also a tin of extremely nice cookies on my coffee table that are practically screaming at me. To be fair, they were hidden away somewhere in my room, but I've inexplicably moved them into plain sight. I think I must be a sadist! Still can't quite bring myself to eat one though :o(
