Tuesday and Wednesday work was hot. And when I got home after work…my apartment’s AC was broken. Of course. Welcome to my life.
The heat sent me into an extreme sloth-like state. Because it was too hot to make my own decisions, I decided to put the responsibility on someone else.
Remember when the Dove chocolate gave me a sign? Well…I’ve decided to let chocolate dictate my life.
That’s right: a dessert dictator. It was that or the Magic 8 Ball.
I’m saving all the wrappers from my Dove chocolate, and I’m doing what the chocolate tells me to do.
This is the first wrapper:
Do what feels right. Obviously, it felt right to eat the lower left corner of the wrapper.
What feels right is…to have another piece of chocolate.
The next wrapper said:
Indulge your every whim.
This confirmed that the second piece was ok.
I think I’m going to like this challenge.
Have a great weekend! I’ll be in Pittsburgh, so let me know what to check out while I’m there.

Well, I’m on the other side of the state, so I can’t help ya there (honestly, i’ve never heard anything good about Pittsburgh-but can’t say it’s true…never been there).
Chocolate is the cure all.

Wear lots of purple while in Pittsburgh!! 😉

Are you trying to get me killed?!?!

I love the messages in Dove chocolates…they’re always on my side even if they dump calories all over my body!

I can just picture the court testimony now: “The chocolate told me to do it!”

Chocolate must ALWAYS be obeyed. Fact.

I can see those wrappers are very wise

Um, I’m lazy/blind – couldn’t find your email address but gave you a shoutout today!!

Mm, chocolate telling you it’s okay to have more chocolate…NICE.
I wish Hershey’s Bliss had fun little messages too. It’s okay though, because I always manage to convince myself that it’s okay to get ten more…I mean one more.

Of course chocolate gets to boss me around. I trust those wrappers even more than fortune cookies (and slightly less than Snapple caps).

When in doubt, Thoughtsy, chocolate is always the answer. Listen to the chocolate.

Just ramble around downtown… it’s a very cool area. Taking the “Incline” up to the observation deck on Mt Washington is also fun, and provides a stellar view of the city.
Beyond that, it just depends on what you like to do. Station Square is a nice little bar/club area, just across the Smithfield St. Bridge. The “Strip District” has nothing to do with stripping… it’s an outdoor market kind of place, with all kinds of interesting shops and kitschy goods. River’s Edge Casino is right there beside the football stadium. Plus there are several stellar museums around. Any hotel concierge would be able to tell you how to get where ever you need to go…
Oh, and “Whoo Hoo!” on getting 2 Favorite Comment mentions in a row!

There’s a beautiful old train station in Pittsburgh that’s been converted into a great restaurant.

Chocolate always knows that’s right. Have fun in Pittsburg, eat some good food.

Hall’s cough drops started this same thing. I saved a ton of wrappers that powered me through the flu. They weren’t nearly as provocative, though. Hope you’re having fun in Pittsburgh!

The Cadbury’s and Darrell Lea chocolate companies had an epic legal battle over the rights to the colour purple. Let it never be said that chocolate doesn’t focus on the important decisions.

I’d rather listen to the chocolate than the fortune cookies.
