Note to self: Don't do that again...
I had a craving, a need, for three of the four main food groups; salt, fat, sugar and chocolate.  So I bought one of those "King Size SNICKERS" from the vending machine in the breakroom.  (There are no real healthy snacks anywhere on site so us hunter-gatherers must resort to extreme measures.)
I knew when the BAR slipped from the spiral delivery system and BANGED in the bottom of the 'customer retrieval chute' that perhaps I was getting more than I bargained for.  Lugging the thing back to my office I set it on the table behind me and I tried to ignore it.  Alas, the allure was too great.
Peeling back the wrapper I took the first glorious bite.  Chocolate, caramel, peanuts and nougat...ahhhhh.  And then the torrid addiction kicked in... I just couldn't stop myself.  Bite after BIG BITE until in a frenzy I had consumed the entire candy bar.
Hi, my name is Papa and I am a chocoholic...
And this bar would have fed a nomadic tribe of south american cocao growers for a week!  It was HUGE!  And now...it is gone.  The sugar buzz remains but the chocolate elation is just flowing away.  I feel so dirty, so ... jones'd.  So I just sit here and stare at the wrapper, wondering if perhaps there is just one more little chocolate crumble stuck in the folds.
Change.  Spare change...can you spare a fellow the price of 'KingSizeSnickers'?
