mmm... donuts...

here's a slightly embarassing situation i ran into this morning. at the office building i decide to take the stairs instead of the elevator to the 2nd floor. as soon as you open the door from the stairwell you see the glass walls of a conference room. as i'm turning left to head down the hall towards my area i see two open donut boxes. i actually stop and double back to see if there's anything in those boxes and sure enuf they're full. i mean, i didn't just look back, my face came down and was close to the glass wall since the boxes were on the other side of the glass and it was completely dark in the conference room. i was even trying to figure out what kind of donuts they were, glazed or sugar i believe. i'm thinking donuts in an empty conference room? i'm so there! but then i look up from the donuts and turns out there's a room full of people in there watching some type of presentation in the dark. i couldn't tell who they were or which way they were looking but i got the hell out of there. i'm hoping i wasn't the only one that stopped for some window shopping. come on, donuts in the morning in plain view but out of reach? it's just like a line from that howard jones song. you can build a mansion but you just can't live in it, you're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win...
