As it was pouring rain, the bus won out, but barely. I clenched my teeth the whole way home, imagining the food waiting in my fridge. When I arrived back, I was four slices into a salami before I remembered I'm a vegetarian. <br /><br />I appreciate your honesty about the visit to the wretched golden arches...but I would be lying if I said I hadn't done the same. Only last week as I passed by one on the way home from the beach, 20 minutes still left to go, I wondered if I should stop for some plastic food, anything to stave off the crazy woman who shouts at people...the one that comes out with the blood sugar drop. Glad to hear you have moments of extra sugar, thin burgers, and though I hate the fast food joints at heart, here's to all the drive thru food places between where we are and where we're going.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6432201290620111119.post-68255784326161247232007-01-09T14:45:00.000+00:002007-01-09T14:45:00.000+00:00nmj thanks - I've enjoyed yours, and the novel exc...nmj thanks - I've enjoyed yours, and the novel excerpts.<br />Chocolate occupies a special place in my life.
