Even though I'm not Catholic, every year for Lent I choose to give something up. It proves to me that I do have some self control and I usually give up some sort of food because I love to eat and it's kind of amazing how much I eat. This year I gave up cheeseburgers and I didn't think I'd make it...but I did. I went more than 40 days without a freaking cheeseburger and it was torture! Thanks to my favorite co-workers for bringing me a big 'ole cheeseburger today from my favorite place--Southwells. And like Jimmy Buffett said...it was Cheeseburger in Paradise (I doubt it had anything to do with the thousand pain medications I'm currently taking) because it was hella good.
Nonetheless, I welcome cheeseburgers back into my world with open arms and of course an open mouth. Lets ignore the fact I hear myself getting fatter just by smelling you, I'm still happy to have you back in my belly. Please don't leave me again. And please don't make me fat.
