Hey, we got a new vending machine. A couple of them in fact. One even has fruit in it, but alas I want chocolate. So I go to insert my coinage and lo and behold there has been a rate hike, 75 cents for a candy bar. Must be the fuel costs:p So I head back to my desk to search out another dime. When I got there I decided maybe I would just have some sweetarts and forget the chocolate.
That worked for about 2 minutes. I found another dime and headed back to the vending machine. Oh what should I have? I really want the Twix, but there in the corner is a 3 Musketeers. I don't really like 3 Musketeers, but it is chocolate and it has 45% less fat than the leading chocolate bars.
I put in my change and select my treasure, nothing happens. I push 149 again, again nothing happens. I push the coin return and get my money back. I stare at the machine and read the instructions. I can't remember what they were, except that it didn't say you should select first and then put your money in, but I tried that anyway. No success. I thought, maybe it just didn't want me to have a 3 Muskateers, so I tried the Twix, nothing again.
I stare at the machine, until a group of kids come along (take your child to work day). I back off and watch the first kid stick his change in the machine, push his number and get his bag of Doritos. I walked back to my desk with my head hanging low. Even the vending machine knows my butt is getting huge.
So now it is 9:25 and I still want chocolate. Oooooh. I just had a revelation. We still have Easter candy on top of the refrigerator. Two Butterfinger eggs. Ahhhhh that hit the spot!!!!
I can sleep peacefully now.
Only 2 more days and I will post 100 things about me. Although, I am not sure I have 100 things I want to share. I am sure there will more totally amazing things like..... Milk Duds are my favorite candy.
