Donuts are hard to resist, aren’t they? Give me a box of the cream-filled kind with chocolate on top and watch me lose all self control.

It’s okay, just buy some disguisting flavored donuts and you’ll hate them forever. 🙂 Or eat a jelly donut filled with ketchup.

That is really sad. Really, really sad. Bwwwahaahaaahaa. Or however you say it. That’s sad too, but not as sad as you and the donuts…Aw, who am I kidding? I didn’t even make it for a run tonight. I made it for a lame walk around my block and then gave up because of my allergies.

If it’s not too much of an emergency, find a Krispy Kreme on June 5 and get a free doughnut for National Doughnut Day. 😉

bwahahahahahahaha! Oh, I’m sorry… was I laughing at you? The equivalent of 6? After 2, what’s 4 more? bwahahahaha!
PS. I think donut holes are like broken cookies and cake crumbs. They do not have any fat grams or calories. It’s like Free Food!

Hi Kathy, Google Tim Hortons and you’ll see what I’ve been trying to resist all week. Maple dip..mmmm….I keep telling myself that I’m just getting a cup of tea.

Now you’ve done it – I will have to have a dunkin donut!
May 30th, 2009 at 6:39 am
Babs Beetle — Yes, I ate four donuts and almost all of the donut holes, which by my calculation, is like two more donuts. Probably more. I’d like to move past that chapter in my life. No more donuts!
Natural — I know. It’s the most pathetic message I’ve ever left on an answering machine. It sounds like I needed an intervention, stat!
Musingwoman — I didn’t buy any cream-filled because somehow they seem worse than ones with holes in them. Who am I kidding? They’re ALL bad!
Regan — That is a genius idea. Kind of like aversion therapy. Please never offer me a “jelly” filled donut. Thanks.
Unfinished Rambler — We can be pathetic together. Although it is my hope that I can walk a bit today and mow the lawn. Hoping that burns off at least one of those donuts.
Chris Casey — Please don’t. I won’t accept them. Well, maybe not all of them. OK. I will. If someone’s making the trip. Can’t be rude now can I?
Roxanne — Why are you telling me this? You know I have a problem. Loves me some Krispy Kremes. I won’t tell you how many of those I can eat.
Barb WillThink4Wine — And the donut holes are so much easier to shove in my pie hole. No little pieces of glazed goodness to fall on my shirt. I can eat them like potato chips. One, two, three … twelve.
Cromely — Or “Intervention” on the A&E channel? I can just see walking into my living room and my family is sitting all around, “Kathy, you have a problem. We’re here to help.”
Pie’s Mom — I never did get to a Tim Horton’s when we went to Toronto last summer. It’s just as well. Won’t give me a reason to hop in my car for a very long donut run. Hope your trip is going well!
Data Entry Services — Have four. One for you and three for me.

I can’t believe you admit how many you ate! This is not the time for rash actions!

May 30th, 2009 at 8:03 am
Oh Kathy, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry! I think the idea of eating a doughnut is that it is supposed to make you feel better. I wonder at which exact doughnut it changes from making you feel better to making you feel bad? Maybe after doughnut #2. If you want to pet my curly back, it might make you feel better. And I would enjoy licking the greasy fingerprints you leave.
ps: I loved the book poem!

Oh, wow. This is just…disturbing.
There’s calories in crumbs and donut holes? NO. Oh, please, tell me no!
That would explain a lot of things. Including the size of my ass.

Reagan, that is just so wrong..jelly donuts are bad enough, but with ketchup?? I’ll have to go eat a whole box of hot Krispy Kremes to just get that out of my mind…then maybe some of the creme filled ones with a cup of tea for desert.
Hmmm..the Krispy Kreme is exactly 2.3 miles from my house…

okay that was just too funny – is there any one in the world for whom donuts are not the ultimate temptation. We have a real bakery that makes donuts on-site. Saturday mornings there is a line down the block. Yeah, that’s what I’m saying REAL donuts not the formulaic Kripsy Kremes or, ack, ack, Dunkin’ Donuts…the real things baby…

Sniffie and the Florida Furkids — Bonus!
Jenny — That is what you call Donut Rage. I wanted to throw the box out before I did too much damage, but I just couldn’t. They were sitting next to the printer and every time I printed something I ate another one. I’m blaming it on the printing.
Nooter — Well, I had four left over. Tossed ’em. If I could have given them to you, I would.
Daisy the Curly Cat — Yes, you are right. The first one is heavenly and I don’t feel bad. The problem is all the ones after. And those darn donut holes! I think I would feel better petting you, and then you could enjoy some delicious glaze to lick afterward. Do kittehs like glaze?
netta — Contrary to popular belief, yes, the holes have calories. But the crumbs don’t. I checked.
Jenn Thorson — You know, I might have been OK if not for the holes. I think I ate 10 of them. Every time I left my desk and walked anywhere, ate another hole. I, too, think my Voki looks oddly like me. With better hair, though.
Crabby Blogging Lady — Yeah, except my call for help went unanswered.
Shadowsrider — My favorite Krispy Kremes are the plain glazed ones. But after my overdose yesterday, I don’t think I’ll be having any soon. Even if they are free. If you get some, please save yourself and don’t buy a dozen.
Grace — I love the place I buy them from. Locally-owned, made on the premises, deliciously fresh every day! I haven’t had a Dunkin Donut in many years and don’t care to.
Misspiggytoes — It would have been better had he answered when I called because I think I had one more after I called. He could have saved me 300 calories if he’d been available.
Babs Beetle — Ah, she knows the feeling then! I was truly out of my mind at that moment. I wish someone would have come into my office and thrown them out for me. Couldn’t do it by myself. No willpower whatsoever.
Dorothy Stahlnecker — You are not alone. Had a party today for my parents’ wedding anniversary. And there I sat, again, overeating. God, please help me stop!
JD at I Do Things — I don’t know if it could have been any more pathetic unless I started to cry, and that wasn’t too far off.
Momo Fali — I’m glad it helped. Let my pain be your gain. Hey, hope your pup is doing OK. Scary reading your tweet the other day. Go eat a donut. You’ll feel better. But only ONE!
May 30th, 2009 at 6:44 pm
You.are.not.serious. Is this really you? No. I know it is you. Oh dear. Is this the time I should mention it sounds just like a message I would leave my husband? Oh man…that’s hilarious! Love this!

I used to love donuts. Lov’em. Don’t know why—they were just good. I liked to have them with coffee in the mornings—like cops—they got me going—ready for the action. But when my hard six pack began to shake like Jello, I had to give them up. Sad. I miss’em.
Love the animation, and the words were perfecto.
Happy trails.

Lisa (Jonny’s Mommy) — Yes, it’s really me, my pathetic self, begging for donut help that never came. It should have been in our marriage vows “Do you promise to save each other from the jaws of donut addiction?”
DJ — It does rather sound like I’m making the call from prison, doesn’t it? Hmmm, felt like it too.
Zula — The avatar has better hair, but I’ll admit I think it looks like me. I’m glad I saved the avatar from the last time I made one, because that particular head is no longer available. Hrumppphh.
Nooter — Yes, it is known as Donut Rage, a coined termed by JD at I Do Things. When you’re so disgusted with yourself for overeating, you go all ragey and throw the offending food out. JUST. LIKE. THAT.
Sami — Well, I’m over donuts for now. I know I won’t be buying them anytime soon. Not even one. This was a very bad episode. I won’t forget it.
Lee — Funny! Hey, this reminds me. Does anyone ever actually dunk their donuts in coffee? That concept seems very gross to me. Who here dunks their donuts?
Swubird — It’s a shame, donuts. They’re like the drug of the food world. Can’t eat just one. They are evil. And as far as I know, they don’t make a lo-cal version. It’s either you eat them in all their glory, or you spend the rest of your life avoiding them.
Aria’z Ink — He did indeed. First a snicker, then a laugh, then a command that I put it on the blog.

hi Kathy,
If it’s any help, I have heard that the faster you eat them, the less calories you absorb. And you get even fewer calories if you wash them down with lots of coffee.

3carnations — You should be. Who needs flowers? Give me a bouquet of donuts instead!
Viveca — OK, so are you telling me that I need to try a Costco hot dog? And did you really juice fast? Fasting is something that never occurred to me to try, but I probably should have after my donut meltdown.
Krispy-Kreme-Lovin’ Trade Show Guru — Yeah, but I did that and I still gained three pounds! Oh wait….
meleah rebeccah — Donuts should be like eating potato chips, by the handful. But I did it. And I’m still regretting it.
John J Savo — Cracked me up too. How pathetic was that? And BTW, he was.
Marsha — I do the same thing. It’s strangely addictive. I only exercised a little after “the incident.” Still working off the damage.
Ferd — That’s OK. Dave’s still playing the message on the answering machine from time to time and he laughs the same all over again. So what’s that you said about giving me another donut?
June 3rd, 2009 at 2:06 pm
I’m glad to see you’re alive above there, Kathy– stopping by and seeing the donut post, I was concerned after the donut diving, you’d died of dunkindonitis… which, I understand, affects one in twenty.
But it looks like you’re well and good… so that’s quite a load off my mind.
