But, this morning, I NEED an iced green tea latte from Starbucks. It's been on my mind all morning. I could have stopped and gotten one on the way to work, but I was trying to have some will power.
I finally gave in. And, now is on its way to me.
Considering how bad I am jonesing for this, I looked up the 12 Steps from AA and molded them to fit my problem and spiritual beliefs:
1. We admit we are powerless over Starbucks—that our lives have become unmanageable.
2. Have come to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Karma
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Admitted to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Are entirely ready to remove all these defects of character.
7. Humbly ask Karma to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Make direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
10. Continue to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admit it.
11. Seek through meditation to improve our conscious contact with Karma, seeking only for knowledge of it for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we try to carry this message to Starbucksaholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
Anyone care to join me on this quest?

Hello. My name is Michelle, and I'm a Starbucksaholic.
P.S.
I'm totally reposting this to my own blog.
If I had known someone would reuse it, I probably would have done a better job on modifying it.
