So on day two of this challenge. I had a day... well, one of those days that you just shake your head in disbelief and ask, "what exactly am i supposed to be learning from that?" So anyway, I had to have a co-worker drive me to a gas station to get gas.(yet my car wasn't on empty) This is not my usual gas station. And I think, "Gee there are alot of candy bars in here. I wonder that they could ever sell them all, they must get stale." Then with my gas line water treatment in hand I am standing at the till. And low and behold what is on the counter!!!
I look away. my resolve not weakened at all. Just then the kindly cashier comes to wait on me and after ringing in my purchase asks, "Would you like to buy a candy bar?" ..... "No thanks", I automatically say. but inside im exclaiming, "COME ON! GIVE ME A BREAK! Seriously who gets asked if they want to buy a candy bar!"
At first I think this is just Karma, temptation, the universe, whatever. I hop in the car and laughingly tell my co-worker, whose never been asked at point of purchase if he wanted to buy a candy bar. He says that maybe she was just trying to boost the sale so i'd qualify for air miles. I think that's a stretch. Then it occurred to me.... "Maybe she caught a longing look in my eye? Maybe my expression read "geezz, i'd sure like one!" .... Haha! if that's the case I should never play high stakes poker!
