aargh!

I invited a bunch of people to come by and take chocolates for themselves and their coworkers.  They’ve been coming by, but have been oh-so-delicately taking a pound or two of chocolates apiece!  Don’t they understand that they’re supposed to cart off entire cartons of the stuff?  Whatever happened to old-fashioned human greed?

Well, I have three more people due to come by, and hopefully I can unload more chocolates onto them.  I suppose if I have more leftovers, I can “donate” them to the AIDS Lifecycle staff at the San Francisco AIDS Foundation. Or send them to work with Mike.  Or something.  (Normally I don’t have this problem because I can feed it all to coworkers, but since I’m currently unemployed, I don’t have any!)

Sheesh.  People need to be more excessive.  Especially when it involves taking chocolates I’m trying to clear out of the house.

Meanwhile, I am caught up on sleep, and have made significant progress in cleaning stuff up.  Once the chocolates are out of the house, I can get back to weaving, cycling, and other personal excesses.
