But now if I have a few swigs left and I'm ready for bed, I brush my teeth and leave it. I'm saving a handful of calories. If anything, it teaches me to buy/drink less beer, which I should be doing anyway.

If I pay for a meal, why do I think stuffing myself is better/more valable than potentially throwing some of it away? Of course, there's always the option of taking some home. But if there are only a few bites left, I'm like, "I should eat this because I paid for it." Nevermind that I might be overeating and causing myself future health problems by "getting my money's worth." Does the value of the food I'm contemplating throwing away have more value than my health? I'm sure there's some horrid environmental tentant I'm breaking with this logic, but it reminded me of your whole "value of the dress thing" thing. Also, I know this whole comment is only something that a first-world citizen would contemplate.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07849476952557212016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587953922704029833.post-58207474327018214602017-01-18T07:43:25.678-08:002017-01-18T07:43:25.678-08:00"So often we find reasons to keep things beca..."So often we find reasons to keep things because of their value. ... Yes, the dress has value, but if I can't and won't wear it, what value does it have to me?
