Help me, help me!!! I can't stop.......

This is for all of us, who go to excess this time of year !!!

'Twas the night before Christmas and all round my hips
were Fannie May candies that sneaked past my lips.
Fudge brownies were stored in the freezer with care
in hopes that my thighs would forget they were there.

While Mama in her girdle and I in chin straps
had just settled down to sugar-borne naps.
When out in the pantry there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the kitchen I flew like a flash
tore open the icebox then threw up the sash.
The marshmallow look of the new-fallen snow
sent thoughts of a binge to my body below.

When what to my wandering eyes should appear:
a marzipan Santa with eight chocolate reindeer!
That huge chunk of candy so luscious and slick
I knew in a second that I'd wind up sick.

The sweet-coated Santa, those sugared reindeer
I closed my eyes tightly but still I could hear;
On Pritzker, on Stillman, on weak one, on TOPS
a Weight Watcher dropout from sugar detox.

From the top of the scales to the top of the hall
now dash away pounds now dash away all.
Dressed up in Lane Bryant from my head to nightdress
my clothes were all bulging from too much excess.

My droll little mouth and my round little belly
they shook when I laughed like a bowl full of jelly.
I spoke not a word but went straight to my work
ate all of the candy then turned with a jerk.

And laying a finger beside my heartburn
I gave a quick nod toward the bedroom I turned.
I eased into bed, to the heavens I cry
if temptation's removed I'll get thin by and by.

And I mumbled again as I turned for the night
in the morning I'll starve...'til I take that first bite!

Good Evening, Rob!

I popped on for a few minutes between boxing up gifts to ship and decorating the tree, and I see you smacking on the hornet's nest? LOL...

"Heard lately"??? Hummm....let's see. Last time I "heard thru the grapevine" from Cheryl it seems she did mention something about a small contract already having been signed. I's dotted, T's crossed, ink dry. Can't believe no one has mentioned this to the thread.

I was confused that a PR wouldn't be put out yet, but she said anyone could drop by the Digitcom office and take a gander at it for themselves. I just hate that I am all the way across the country and can't do it myself. Sure wish there was someone in the Santa Monica area who was interested enough to drop by and verify.

Has anyone else heard this or is it just another "rumor"?

E'Lane....finishing "whack" on the hornet's nest...off to a Christmas party!!
