Abstainer: a weak person who yields to the temptation of denying himself a pleasure

The words were harmless enough. But they stopped me in my tracks.
“I thought you didn’t like sweet things.”

Busted.

Let’s call Monday the day of indulgence times 3 … or is it 4? I lost track. At least three people brought in chocolate, chocolate and yes, more chocolate treats to the newsroom.
I was rushed this morning. I didn’t make a lunch so I was weak.

I was very weak.

This ends right now. I can’t keep doing this to my body. This mindless snacking is wrong but oh so good at the same time.

Fortunately my weekend starts tonight. I will not be tempted by the gooey snacks for two days. Let’s hope there’s none left when I return on Thursday.
