How did a day that started off so darn well, ended up so ridiculously painful? I blame it all on the box of Kripsy Kremes that flew in from melbourne the night before. The last time i tasted these delicious suckers was over a year ago, in a whole different time zone. They were my staple breakfast, washing them down with hazelnut-flavored (bad)coffee. And i walked them off by dinner time. Today was an entirely different story. The box of twelve came in first thing in the morning. I took half a glazed one and washed it down with my coffee. After that i felt kinda yucky from the sugar. I resisted for another hour but caved in for a second half helping. I gave half of that half away 'cos i was yelling at the guy sitting in front of me to try it warmed up. I swear it's a million times better! After he took half of my half, i wasn't happy with my teeny bite-size leftover so i took another half from the box and quietly ate it all myself. Many hours later ... the sugar-filled office came crashing down from our high. One left with a splitting migraine (i bet its the sugar!), others basically flat-lined and mulled about not feeling all that in a mood for work. With the coffee machine broken, we were left to weather this pain un-medicated. How could something so good, be so destructive? Life is so unfair.

But i still love you.
