I feel like I'm getting tired really easily lately.

Only four days until half price chocolate day. I'm pre-emptively getting my exercise in.

Did we not just have one of those? There's another?

There's a lot. We like excuses to eat chocolate, apparently.

Or just eat to excess. What is this one about?

That too. It's to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus after he was executed and then rose from the dead three days later (except it's actually two days later... never quite figured that one out). But for kids it's mostly about chocolate eggs.

Ah. Because humans do not come back from the dead normally. But why chocolate? I understand the day of love to have value in chocolate, it produces endorphins to make people happy and affectionate, correct? But why chocolate eggs?

No idea. I know it used to be more common to just use actual eggs and paint or dye them and some people still do. Guess someone figured that chocolate always sells well and it caught on.

Humans are overly obsessed with chocolate. While also obsessing over the effects of sugar. Do they not see the correlation?

There's a massive guilt complex about food in general. It's not something I've ever really studied but there's a lot of talk about good and bad food and how what you eat is some kind of indication of who you are as a person. Americans mostly value pretty bland food, honestly. There's definitely some stuff that's over the top but it gets looked down on a lot.

Yeah, was never big on the chocolate on Easter. More about the jelly beans and the Peeps. Thanks for the reminder I should find a church for Easter service.

I'm mostly a "chocolate on Occasions/in trail mix/emergency kit" guy. Though I prefer it darker for the latter two.

Good to know.

I could absolutely go for some Peeps s'mores, though.

Do it up. I won't be eating anything like that until Sunday.

That's how we always did it when I was a kid. Hot cross buns on Friday, candy on Sunday.

Amazing what you learn by going outside. I almost forgot it was that time of year.

So... you found out there's this whole other world outside of your clinic?

Be fair, I'm also familiar with my lab and my apartment.

There's less chocolate in all three of those places, though.

There is.

I have a feeling that might shift the other way on Monday. Leave some for me and the youth center?

It seems likely. I'm not made of money, that's Tony.
