Snickers Blizzard...with Extra Snickers

I was sitting on the couch one night last week when I got the sudden urge for ice cream.  I looked at the clock...11 minutes to 10pm.  I sat there for a minute...wondering if I could even get to Dairy Queen before they closed.  I kept telling myself I didn't even need the stupid ice cream...so I talked myself out of it and walked down to the bathroom instead.

While I was washing my hands, I started thinking about the ice cream again.  I walked down the hallway towards the family room...I checked the clock again. 8 minutes until 10. I sighed...and decided I could make it.

I slipped on my flip flops, grabbed my purse and keys and headed for the garage.  I started laughing at myself when I realized how FAST I was speeding southbound on 67th Avenue towards the Dairy Queen.  Sad...but funny.  I have never had urges for food the way have lately...it's very interesting...and fattening.

I made it into the drive-thru with only a moment to spare.  I ordered my small Snickers Blizzard (with extra Snickers)...and happily drove the speed limit home.
