The pecan roll is haunting me
I stopped at the cafeteria on my way back from the gym. I got a scrambled egg and a link of sausage.

There it was, on the pastry cart. Ooeey, Gooey, sticky with pecans all over it.

And I told myself "walk away" and I did.

But now I can hear it calling me. It even knows my name. Whatever shall I do?

3. Give in! Give in to the POWAH of the dark side
Embrace your pecan roll desire and become more powerful than your enemies!

5. Try not to think about it!
Grab a bottle of water or a cup of coffee.

Those kinds of things always know my name too...

6. If you were me, here is how this whole thing would go down....
Edited on Tue May-10-05 09:27 AM by JimmyJazz
you would eat something healthy in an effort to avoid the pecan roll. That wouldn't really do the trick, so you would eat something a little less healthy than the first thing, also in an effort to avoid the pecan roll. That wouldn't work either, so you would eat a small cookie instead of the pecan roll. Still nothing. You would eventually cave and eat the pecan roll.

SO! Think of all those calories you just saved yourself by heading straight for the pecan roll. :crazy:

P.S. You should see me justify a shopping spree :D

7. I did have
a mini-croissant w/ some orange marmelade. It seems to have quieted the ghost--for now.

9. Not really
just a smaller stomach (quite literally).

Help yourself to the pecan roll.
