I've finally done it.  I've outsmarted myself.  And now I'm ticked off.
My friend Jamie gave me a package of mint M&M's the other day for watching her kids.  Totally unnecessary, but very sweet.
In the spirit of trying to do better, I thought I'd save them until Saturday-- my "free" day, if you will.  I didn't trust myself, however, so I made a plan.  I told Michael to hide them from me and not under any circumstances to give them up until Saturday.
He did his job well.  Now I'm jonesing for chocolate and I CAN'T find it!!!  He just laughs when I tell him to go get me the M&M's RIGHT NOW.  He thinks it's a test.  He doesn't know he's angering an addict.  He's playing with fire.
Seriously, how good a hiding place could a six year old find?  Kind of makes me wonder what else he has stashed around here.  All I know is that if the kid doesn't give it up here soon, I'm going to take desperate measures and instigate some serious tickle torture.  
Don't mess with the Chocolate Beast. . .
