Detox Day One

Sunday was an awful day. I took an Advil and tried to go to the gym, where I put in 5 minutes before stepping off the ET and then barely managed to do my OT stuff before going home and collapsing into bed again.

I accomplished nothing except a new record for most hours spent sleeping on a Sunday.

I even managed to sleep through most of the night with only a few weird dreams about fencing, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and living in a converted mall.

At the moment, I'd give one hell of a lot for an M&M as it would be the equivalent of the "hair of the dog that bit me". A little chocolate would, I suspect, take the edge off. However, my past experience is that going cold turkey is (in the long run) more likely to be successful than tapering off.

Days of detox:
chocolate = 1
sugar = 1
caffeine = 2

Addendum: When I reached work, I remembered that I'd left a bag of M&Ms at my desk. It's in the wastebasket. Let's see if I can make it through the day without digging it out. I was also gifted with a Dove dark chocolate.

Whimper.

    Linda, I feel your pain. I can't say I'll walk that painful path WITH you, but, yeah, one chocolate leads to another. . . and another.
    Maybe you can focus on this:
    I believe that THRUSH has infiltrated the chocolatier industry and plans to graft an insidious pseudo-cacao plant onto the existing plantations: one that produces a mind-controlling ingredient into the chocolate product. Of course their goal is to rule the world! Your mission, Agent Dunn, with the help of Napoleon Solo and the (delicious) Illya Kuriakan is to expose THRUSH's plot, burn the affected cacao plantation, and bring the healthful aspects of chocolate back to an unsuspecting public.

    LOL, given the way I feel at the moment, I think THRUSH has already succeeded.

    If Illya shows up on my doorstep, however, I will follow him to the nearest caco plantation... or darn near anywhere else he wants to go.

    At least last night's dreams were all about fencing. Explicitly, a tour of fencing facilities.
