I Fell Off the Wagon

oh… you people are killin’ me! If I could find any Ben and Jerry’s “Wavy Gravy” I would do myself a SERIOUS disservice right now…

Heroin would be much more slimming and relaxing. But my local Shop-Rite doesn’t carry heroin. I must talk to Customer Service about that.

No, it’s a Protestant Alpiner

I had been having a serious “Carl’s” jones for several weeks, but was able to stop by while visiting the folks and got my fix. “Carl’s” is a frozen custard stand in Fredericksburg and EVERYTHING in the frozen dessert realm pales in comparison.

I had my usual: A giant, hotfudge, maplenut sundae. I mailined the extra whipcream directly into my femoral artery.

Eve I will gladly switch jobs with you for a day. You will be begging to take your job back! I work in an office of 15 men (I am the only female) I get every crap job that the guys don’t want to do. I am not appreciated at all. I have to put up with the “guy talk and language” There is so much testosterone in the air you can smell it! They don’t treat me like the Princess I am! I am forced to drink coffee the way they want it. (mud) I am forced to eat lunch alone. I could go on and on. Why don’t I pick up a pack of Oreo cookies and a pint of Wavy Gravy and you and I sit down and make the arrangments to change jobs.

Well, there’s always this option:

I’m not sure I quite believe it, but it’s nice to dream–of Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia (lowfat, of course.)

Have any of you guys considered lighter drugs like, say…crack or heroin? That ice cream will kill you quick… :wink:

Ohhhh Carl’s. How I miss thee. My thing there was a vanilla malt. Sometimes chocolate. Sigh. We used to go for coffee at Hyperion (full-fat mochas with their homemade whipped cream) and then to Carl’s. Yum. It’s no wonder I gained 20 pounds in college.

Now I live near the Del Ray Dreamery. Same custard-type stuff, more flavors. But they have yummy sorbet too so I don’t have to fall off the wagon very often. I do anyway, but that’s another story.

I fell off the wagon and was run over by the dang thing. Last night, the SO was in a foul mood and asked that I go get him a Snickers Bar. So I go into the little convenience store, and as there was a short wait, perused the candy shelves. I came out with 3 large Snickers, 1 Zero Bar, 1 Baby Ruth, 1 PayDay and a large bag of Peanut M&M’s.

You should be proud of me. I didn’t eat a single bite in the 2 minute drive back home. :smiley:

A Mary Wash girl? I’ll be damned. We had a great little song about Mary Wash girls…

That is so hysterical, I may have to steal it to use in conversation.

Oh, but you don’t NEED to ignore it! You can make it Virtually Fat Free (and extremely rich and yummy-tasting anyway) if you do a one-to-one substitution of unsweetened applesauce instead of oil when you make it.
Oooohhhhh, it’s good…
