Over the past few months, I've been fighting this internal struggle. It seems that every night, I stay up, I type words, I surf the net, I post on AW, and I lie to myself.
I lie to myself by telling myself that I'm someone I'm not.
I tell myself that I'm a certain type of person, and I then present myself to everyone around me as that person, and then I wage this inner war with my conscience, because I know that I'm really NOT what I present myself as.
And, I can't take it anymore.
So, I'm banning myself...
...from going to bed until I've baked some more chocolate chip cookies.
I can't help it. I fancy myself a healthy person. I work out. I usually eat right. People who know me know how health consicious I am.
"Eating right" and being "health conscious" would probably preclude me from baking cookies several nights a week.
But...I can't help it. They're so warm, and gooey, and delicious. A few months ago, I got into the habit of baking Nestle Toll House Break and Bake "Chocolate Chip Lover's" cookies.
I even shove extra chocolate chips in them.
So, I admit it. I'm a cookie lover.
And, with that, I'm going downstairs now, to bake some more.
JUST TRY AND STOP ME!
