subterfuge

I just returned from a late-night shopping run to the 24 hour Safeway, ostensibly to pick up a few “essentials.” The trip turned into a a larger grocery expedition — TV dinners, yogurt, fruit and the like — all to help assuage my guilty conscience, which kept reminding me that the real reason I ventured out was a “midnight munchies” craving for chocolate chip cookies. As if counterbalancing my basket with healthy foods somehow erases the junk food sin. And as hard as I try to convince myself, there’s no way that, paired together, the skim milk will cancel out the Chips Ahoy. Alas.
