I was watching an older episode of law and Order last night....Marlo Thomas guested as a retired judge giving advice in her living room....mixing these HUGE martinis with beatiful crystal glasses and these very attractive plump olives...she and the DA sat down on her attractive couch, sipped and chatted...wearing pretty clothes and make-up talking about a child abuser parent.
i kept staring at the drinks....and i thought about how good one would taste too....then i realized that the best part of the drink was the olives....and they would do me less harm...so i told myself if i wanted to get out of bed and eat olives go right ahead.....eat the whole JAR if i "needed" them.
i had already turned the heat down..it was too late and too cold to get up and satisfy my craving....and it passed.
but i didn't want the booze, i think i craved the "mood" the TV show created.
