Chocolate colored glasses....
I just ate an entire Milka bar.
That my friend from Germany brought to me last weekend.
Truth is... she brought about a dozen Milka bars...kinder eggs...REAL gummie (pronounced GOO-MEE not GUM EE as americans like to say.) bears...lebekuchen...and various other family favorites....and the pièce de ré·sis·tance...REAL NUTELLA with LEIBNIZ crackers. Just for me.
I wish I could say that she just came to visit me.....but truth be told, she really came for conference... and since I live here...she was able to spend 2 hours with me.
Most importantly... was able to give me the loot.
And, like astingy selfish responsible parent,
I hid them so the kids wouldn't gobble them all up.
Trouble is...
I know that hiding place.
The only thing that keeps me from eating everything at once, is that it is in a central location and I have to wait until no one is in the room 'til I sneak some.
Quite a difficult feat, when they're almost always here.
*sigh*
But today... I couldn't care less.
The blogs I read generally have a sunny outlook....I'm sure that's why I chose them to read on a regular basis. Not much in the way of how sad they feel at the time.
I've tried to keep my blog upbeat... because generally.. I am.
Upbeat that is.
I love laughter.
Happiness.
Silliness.
But life is life...and sometimes things get a person down.
I'm down today.
And will be partaking in as many of those lovely chocolate bars...
as often
as I
darn
well
feel
like.
