I hate an empty fridge. Really dislike it. You know why? It makes me feel poor. I don't like to feel poor. Feeling poor makes me feel out of control, and, well, I like control. A lot. But lately (as in this morning), there has been a bad smell coming from the fridge. Well, not from it when it's closed, but from it when you open it. I decided to face my El Guapo and clean out my fridge. I have an entire empty shelf and two empty drawers. The top two shelves are not full. I could fit everything onto one shelf. But then I might feel impoverished instead of just poor.
We all have El Guapo's. For some of us, illiteracy may be our El Guapo. It's the thing that holds us back. I have several El Gaupo's. The fridge is just the first of many. It was probably the easiest El Guapo to vanquish. Maybe if I tackle an El Guapo a week, I could have them all taken care of by our summer vacation. Then I would be perfect. Some of you don't like perfect people, but that would be your El Guapo, not mine.

And pray tell what would be my El Guapo? Thanks for the laugh and the the insight.
anne marie-- I think your El Guapo would be buying too many Cars toys...
Good job! I love a clean fridge! I don't like the actual act of cleaning it but I like it when it's done!
I don't like an empty fridge because then I'll feel like I don't have any food and I wont eat! Then, I'll get cranky! haha! But I feel poor every single day....living in an apartment! It's humilating! I know, I need to get over it. But first, let me conquer my broken foot!
BTW~ The Coldstone Was just the PERFECT GESTURE! PERFECT!! THANKS!
