How do they not see the connection? So two days ago the humpback I share an office with confided in me that her doctor told her she has pre-diabetes. Yesterday, there were bagels brought in for everyone. She ate breakfast, a bagel, lunch, a bagel, and then snacked again before leaving. This morning, someone brought in donuts for everyone. I was here early, so I had already made myself a bowl of plain oatmeal and didn't bother with them. The grand cetacean didn't bother coming to her desk until half an hour after our workday is supposed to start because she was hoovering up the Dunkin'. She just got back from lunch with two boxes and informed me 'They're having a BOGO on cakes at Harris Teeter!' She couldn't have! She did.  You'd think that a diagnosis of 'you'll have diabetes sooner rather than later if you continue to eat this way' would be enough for a little self-reflection and a period of at least pretending to be good with her diet. Nope. Why is this so hard for them? Fuck!
