Somebody Up There Likes Me

OK, we all know that those Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies have crack cocaine or something in them. And that's OK, so long as Girl Scout Cookie Season is ongoing, and I can keep my jones down.
Well.
Yesterday one of the people I work with brought in a few boxes of GS cookies, and one of those boxes happened to be Thin Mints, and so, being the unselfish sort that I am, I decided to help out the Girl Scouts and I bought that box of Thin Mints. And. I. Ate. The. Whole. Box. (well, I ate the contents of the box, but not the box or the cellophane). Mind, I did not eat all of the cookies at one sitting: I ate one sleeve when I bought the box, and then I ate the other sleeve at lunch (which consisted of one cup of non-fat yogurt and one sleeve of Thin Mints).
Well again.
So I went to the gym for my daily work out, and when I weighed myself at the end... I weighed one pound LESS than I had weighed the day before (when I did NOT eat an entire box of Thin Mints). Now, granted, my workout was something that would have crippled a lesser man, but still: Someone up there must really like me, and Life is Good.
Well.
