Ok, some of you know that I work overnights on the weekends for Best Western. And every night at around 2:30am I get a call from a nice lady that says "Hi Parrish this is the doughnut shop, how many do you need?" By the way Parrish is my first name. So to begin with I have to order the doughnuts. Then at about 4:30am the driver shows up and unloads between 5 and 10 dozen doughnuts. Now these doughnuts are fresh and still warm and smell like what I believe Heaven will smell like. From about 5:00am untill I leave these doughnuts call my name. I have to walk by them 2-3 times to refill my coffee and it is at this time that I can feel the weakness set in. I inhale deeply and stare as I walk by to get to the coffee machine. Then the return trip past the doughnuts and I can feel the sweat pop out of my forehead. My hand starts to drift towards the cakey treats and at the last minute I rush past and out the door, safe for the next 45 minutes untill the coffee runs out.

Its when I get back to the desk that I always decide that next time I'm switching to tea!!

That was a great anecdote. I'm proud of you for being able to get by that box over and over again. But as I read in that great detail I was standing in that break room with you!

"Perrish" the thought!  Temptation has a way of rearing its ugly head, doesn't it. LOL  If you're serious, how about taking a little coffee maker to work with you and put it on your desk - consider it a luxury pampering of yourself - you deserve it!
