Chocolate cravings

I have a bad craving for chocolate this morning. Thank goodness I am headed to Wally Mart in an hour so I can pick some up. M&Ms, 3 Musketeers, chocolate covered peanuts, Reese's pieces, you name it - I'll eat it.

We have some lovely Ghirardelli chocolate in the refrigerator that CD got from J & J for Father's Day. He would be happy to share it but I only took one piece, I'll leave the rest for him to enjoy. Why? Because his idea of enjoying a piece of chocolate is to take 1/3 of a 1.25 oz bar of milk chocolate and eat it. That's it! Do you know how small that is? It's TINY!! I'd finish off the whole bar and want more!!!!! A 6.0 oz bar would just about take the craving off, if I had it with a vanilla caffe' latte from my local Java hut.

Even the health centers are now saying that you no longer need to feel guilty if you enjoy a small piece of dark chocolate once in awhile.

Wonder what kinda of chocolate I'll find today?

Did you hear that?

CD had to work late the other night and I was sleeping when he got home. When I went to turn the coffeepot on, I found this note:

"I got in at 12:30 - do not have to work tomorrow. You and Joe Beegle were sleeping much too comfortably in my bed. I'm upstairs."

Translation: I got in late, don't wake me up. How come I have to go sleep upstairs? Why isn't Joe Beegle on the floor in his own bed?

Response: I do not sleep well alone. I even sleep on the couch at my daughter's house even though there is a perfectly good bed in the spare room. I sleep way too soundly, I would never hear anyone breaking in. So, if you are gone, Joe Beegle is more than welcome. After all, who did you have to wake up because of an earthquake. And by the way, why do you always says "did you hear that"? No, I didn't. You go check, I'll dial 911.
