Delay of gratification matters

[vicarz]

So I had a stressful day at work again today, and I know it will be followed by the same tomorrow as I will be acting as Branch Chief once again. I've been pretty on top of the issues with a very low staff, so I'm pretty happy with my performance - but I'd really rather just do my ER work and be left alone! I don't have class until 8 pm - so I have time to try and finish my paper. I am haunted by this paper, and I have to finish it, reading two sample wills, and prepping about 50 pages of criminal law by 6pm tomorrow.

So, I get off work and am very tired. I'm stressed. I need to get things done, and now. Discipline demands no less, and possibly more. So what do I do.

I stop by Hecht's on the way home and buy about $100 worth of 1/2 priced Godiva.

I. should. have. gone. to. the. gym.

The guilt is now setting in. Didn't I just stare at my tummy? Aren't I missing my cardio workouts? Don't I have to do that law thing this Sat so I'll miss boxing entirely? Didn't I just buy a body-fat scale that never notices when I suck in my gut?

I have eaten almost my whole pound of chocolate in 2 days. Vday rocks only for the candy.
