No Willpower

I caved and ate a cookie today.

It came with my Chinese jalapeno chicken. A small, little, innocuous fortune cookie. Not too sweet, just the right amount of crisp, with a palatable fortune to boot:

"You have an ambitious nature and may make a name for yourself."

And on the back was:

"LEARN CHINESE: Are you Mr Bush? (Ni shi bu-xi xian-sheng ma?)"

Greatness that I would have otherwise missed had my willpower resisted the delectable nugget of cookiness. Of course, that does mean "Little Easter" is now cancelled for this Sunday...bugger. Which is going to blow, since a box of chocolate cookies named Crunky are sitting on the kitchen table calling my name.
