there’s a lot of candy floating around the office today and not a few squabbles over who will get the [insert treat there is only one of in the bowl]. these are the spoils of my co-worker’s children’s labours last night. i feel almost guilty sucking happily away on the raspberry tootsie pop i scavanged. i didn’t go out begging for this treat. i just sat at home and waited for authoritarian parents to say “you can have this” and “you cannot have that” to their glucose-laden offspring.
\ni hated it when my mom took my candy. she was an adult, she could have as much as she wanted, whenever she wanted it. why did she have to take mine? (she was a hypocrite, too. she’d eat my candy, but give out sunflower seeds to our trick-or-treaters. the kids got the hint after year three and didn’t come to our house anymore. i ate a lot of sunflower seeds that winter.)
\nthat being said, i’m going to get myself hopped up on contraband candy and this afternoon i’m going to the dentist to have a filling replaced. in a cosmic sense, i think it’s all very appropriate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
