Dear Self

Dear Self,
It is ok to go to the gym at 10 pm.
It is ok to motivate yourself through your grueling (and by grueling I mean filled with water breaks and about 45 minutes long) workout with the thought of a Mixed Berry smoothie from McDonald's.
It's ok to scurry over to McDonald's after your workout as fast as you can, whistling as you go.
It's ok to take a very late yellow into the McDonald's parking lot.
It's ok to proudly order a large Mixed Berry smoothie with a smile on your face.


It's not ok to get audibly upset when the drive-thru worker informs you that the smoothie machine is turned off.
It is not ok to ask the drive-thru worker to clarify several times that the smoothie machine is turned off.
It is not ok to be a smart aleck and ask them why their machines turn off when their restaurant is open 24 hours.
It's not ok to make a rude sigh to hide your embarrassment when they tell you they close at midnight....and it's 11:03.

It is ok to think "screw it" and order a Rolo McFlurry instead. Because those things are amazing.
