A little stressed today. Found myself doing the 3pm dance in front of the vending machine. Coke and chips. That’s what I wanted. I got the dollar. I walked to the vending machine. I put the dollar into the slot. I was not doing this mindlessly, I was consciously choosing to sabotage myself. Then I saw the popcorn. And sanity returned. I got popcorn. I got a cup of raspberry tea and sweetened it with splenda and poured it over ice.
Crisis averted. Bullet dodged.
Salvation pathway in brain reinforced.
