Yeah.. I'm an idiot.
I quit smoking... er... I'm *trying* to quit smoking.
Today, I broke down.
I decided I wanted a cig...and I'd just go pick up a pack.
Oh...and while I'm at 7-11, a half-pint of Haagen Dazs would be nice, too.
I get to the store...and whaddaya know... Blue Bell (it's a Texas thing) ice cream is on sale - 2 pints for $3. How could I resist, right?
I figure that will last me forever... no harm done...
I get to the register.
"Pack of Marlboro Ultra Lights, please."
"You want the 3 for 2 special?" the clerk says.
Hmm.... Well, hell. What a deal! How could I resist?
I was so embarrassed by my purchase of 3 packs when I only wanted/needed one... that I didn't pay attention to the total, just ran my card and left.
I got home... looked in the bag.
It was a buy 3 get 2 free special.
Anybody want a cig??
