As we walked into the store, Bret seemed to instantly gravitate towards the donuts. Luckily, the grapefruit stopped him, and we were able to continue our shopping without donuts. We went looking for chicken, and on the way passed freezers full of ice cream.

b: “Tearsa, we need ice cream!”

t: “No we don’t.”

b: “Yes, you need ice cream! How have you forgotten this? Oh, never mind. It’s cheaper at Smiths. We’ll just get it there later.”

A few minutes later as we were getting ready to leave….

b: “Tearsa, I just want to look at something real quick.”

Right, you just want to look. Regardless of my apprehension, I followed–straight to the donuts.

b: “Which one would you like Tearsa?”

t: “I don’t want one.”

b: “But you need one!”

t: “No, if you want one, you can have one, but none for me.”

b: “Oh fine, let’s go. I’m not going to get one without you. But we could get some Starburst…”

t: “No.”

When we got home:

b: “I want a treat…can we make cookies?”

t: “Sure, make some cookies.”

The next morning:

b: “Yay, we have treats to bring to school today! Delicious cookies! How many do you want, Tearsa?”

t: “Just one.”

b: “You can’t have just one! You need at least two.”

Bret then hands me a bag with three cookies in it.

t: “Fine, I’ll have two. But I can’t take three or I’ll eat them all.”

b: “Exactly, you need them Tearsa!”

I put one of the cookies back.

 

I married a sugar monster. and no, I don’t have perfect self-control.
