Self Reflection and Ben & Jerry's

I am finding that during this time of transition in my life, I am learning more about myself than perhaps I really want to know. Most of the stuff I am learning is rather unflattering. I never really thought that highly of myself, so I find it a bit surprising that the more revelations I have, the more my ego takes a hit.

I have to make sure that I don't spend too much time in reflection because I quickly become depressed and begin doing my favorite hobby...stress eating. Oh the joys of Ben and Jerry's!! I don't believe one can truly go through any sort of joy or struggle in life without the help of Chunky Monkey, Chubby Hubby, or Fish Food. Life just isn't complete without those morsels of deliciousness!



This, of course, is dangerous territory to enter into both for your waistline and your budget. As you eat these succulent morsels of joy and wonderment, your waistline expands. As your waistline expands, your pants then, in turn, seem to grow smaller. Your pocket book begins to feel the pinch due to the mass amounts of ice cream consumption and elevated clothing costs. Ben and Jerry's is not a cheap habit!!! If only there were a patch to help kick the addiction. Perhaps an IV that continually pumps the mysterious delectible ingredients into one's blood stream to take the edge off the cravings. I think I just found my calling in life!!! :)


At any rate, until I can get some funding and FDA approval on my new, brilliant invention, y'all might want to start buying up shares of Ben and Jerry's stock. I have a feeling that if things don't change soon, I will be single handedly pulling the United States out of the recession!!
