Hold on!! Before everyone answers at once, you haven't heard why yet! My name is Melissa and I hoard candy. I will buy a candy bar while I'm in line at the grocery store, but I won't want to eat it...I'll go home and hide it in a drawer. I want it...but I don't want to eat it. So I'll end up with little stashes of cookies and candy everywhere. Occasionally I dip into them and treat myself, but a lot of times the chocolate gets all white and I don't eat it. AND if I do eat it...I eat it quickly in my room so nobody can see me. Is that so weird?? I guess I feel guilty eating it or something!?For example, right now I have a stash of Canadian chocolate bars in my nightstand from October, I just finished a box of Christmas oreos in my closet a few weeks ago, I have a couple of little suckers in the top drawer of my nightstand, a box of fudge covered mint oreos in the bathroom of the house I'm housesitting this week, a bag of microwave kettle corn in my backpack, a jar of Valentine's candy on my desk, and a pack of Big Cup Reese's in my desk drawer. That's only the stuff I can remember! Who knows what else is out there!? Does anyone else do this, or am I really a crazy person?? I buy it because I want it, but I don't want to eat it... And I'm the one with a psychology degree! Ironic...

note to self...raid your room next time I come home. And yes, you are crazy. No, actually, as much as my 6 year old self wouldn't believe me, I don't always eat all my candy right away either. I don't understand how it happens.
So this is an anonymous comment, but I love your blog, your shared honesty, which is both refreshing and appreciated, and your ability to move forward with your head high even after a tough break-up.
We've never met before and pobably never will, but some of your entries have really put things in perspective for me.
Thank you.
I think I now need to sit by you in church. You will have treats! And PS, yes, you are crazy. But, in the adorable and fun way, not the way that would require a psychology degree.
well now that I know where it all is, don't be suprised if it disappears!!
LOL LOL, I love it!!! (p.s. is it just me or is it slightly creepy to have an anonymous comment [though a good one] on your blog? lol) but seriously, this post is killing me. so great...and if only I could be that way with money like I was when I was a kid. now that was some awesome hoarding...but candy. oh that's great.
