Sugar poisoning

Damn these people who bring Halloween candy to work. Seriously! I'm all on board with self-determination and personal responsibility, but the combination of stress, Smarties and Whoppers is about to kill me.

I'm very, very tempted to go around and quietly throw every bit of it in the garbage. Because what's worse? Me on a sugar high (followed by hangover) or Whoppers in the trash? Either way, it's wasted, but at least in the trash it's not making my head explode.

I'm feeling the same way about the enormous amounts my kids brought home. I don't want/need all this damn candy & yet there seems no way to get rid of it responsibly. Someone suggested the local kids' hospital might want it; I'll have to call and see.

It was much easier when they were small & their treat collection radius was limited to a single block.

*GASP*

Whoppers in the *trash*????

I'll pretend I didn't see that!

Hee! Your comment on my post makes so much more sense now! I was wondering how you randomly came up with Smarties and Whoppers....

You have my sympathies. And will have them even more in about an hour...

Smarties and Whoppers: a porn!fic in which a group of nerdy academic young men come upon a group of well-endowed body-builders ...

You know... Smarties are a different candy in Canada. Harder resist. Chocolate goodness... mmm. We call your chalky Smarties... Rockets.

I have nothing to add to this conversation! I've been so thankful in the last four Halloweens we have not had to buy or consume treats for this horrible day. It makes me sick just remembering those times. And yes, they are irresistible, if nothing else due to their sweet and innocent size and appearance,. Just one can't hurt... right?

Most especially not eaten by you. Yeah for conviction!
