riding the hershey highway while surfing the crimson tide

ethan just sent this link out to some of my old high school buddies, who will probably be appalled by the above headline and ensuing story. to you guys, first off, hi! and second, I swear it's not always this vulgar and it doesn't always go into this amount of detail. but sometimes it does. I'm sorry in advance. please continue to visit anyway.

anyway. tomorrow, sean and I are taking trent (but not bella, she will be staying with KKKathy, who will also be watching our dog, meaning I have to restrain myself from asking her very sweetly and politely to please don't put the dog to sleep without asking me first) to hershey park.

as the name implies, hershey park is a theme park centered around hershey's line of chocolate. and today's irony is that I have my period, and when I do, I want copious amounts of chocolate. which isn't ironic. but not being able to have chocolate lest I trigger a horrible ibs bout with all the pain and the tethering to the stanza da bagno, that is ironic. I'll be literally in the world of chocolate, where they pipe in chocolate smell, give out samples, and make even the street lights look like hershey kisses, and not be able to EAT any of it.

Oh sadly, I have had this entry's title apply to me. I can't even imagine being in the middle of Hershey while this is going on. That's just plain cruel. Hopefully you will have a fun 3/4 (or is that 3/5) of a family day.

An inspired title. Can you just have a little? Like one super rich truffle or something? Can you take something before hand for IBS like you do Beano for gas?

Man, my mind went to a few porn titles in my collection.

Whoops did I just type that? Slippery fingers. Too much time on the Hershey Highway.

Wondering if there is something similar you could partake in. Does carob do the same thing to you? I know it's a cheap-ass hippie substitute, but there are some tasty carob treats out there in healthfood land.

Oh NO! I don't think I could resist. Of course I didn't just spend my Sunday in the bathroom. Poor Patrice!

The TORTURE! AAhhhh! Please tell us you'll be getting a break soon. After the last week, I think you deserve a day off and a massage (in chocolate, even, if that'd help).

maybe just a teensy weensy little bite. for sanity.

BUY lots of it and eat it later. Like when you bring it to the shore? In the meantime you can have french fries, water ices and funnel cake.

And who did he send the link too?

That's where the term cruel and unusual punishment comes in. Do they really pipe in the smell? Brutal.

Love the title, that's great! I am so sorry that is just horrible. I feel for you just like everyone else!!

Hope you bought some like Nicole said.

Hershey Park is where I went on my 1st roller coaster.
