lost in the laundry?

well, i wish i could say that i've been sporting my superhero cape since my last posting and have not been eating sweets...but the truth is, after five solid days of no sweets, i was grouchy, short tempered, depressed and antsy. it started with a simple m&m, which led to bigger and better things like cookies, brownies and more candy. granted, it wasn't consumed all at once, but the sweetness on my tongue has brought back a little bit of joy to my days. the removal and subsequent losing of my "cape" has actually been a good thing. for once i am actually happier for something going missing in the "laundry." i guess i'm not a superhero after all and i'm okay with that.
