I am like most people and look forward to the Girl Scout Cookie drive every year. I look forward to the delivery of the cookies that I love the Samoas and Thin Mints for Em. Well, this year I went overboard, but really didn’t realize how overboard until Em and I sat down and counted up our orders.

It all started on a Saturday afternoon with a ring of the doorbell and a cute girl asking me to buy cookies. Of course I bought some (6 boxes). About an hour later the doorbell rang again and another cookie peddler and yes I bought again (4 boxes). On Sunday I received an email form a friend asking to purchase cookie form their daughter and of course I did (4 boxes), oh yeah Em received the same email and she said ye, as well (6 boxes). The following week I bought a few more (4 boxes) from a colleague at work, as did Em (3 boxes). Yes, a total of 27 boxes.

Em and I were talking and realized how overboard we went, okay, I went. I guess the first step to recover y is admitting you having a problem. Now I need to find a twelve-step program for Girl Scout Cookie recovery.
