Ch-oatmeal Chip Cookies

The other day I decided I needed cookies. Yes, it was a need, or maybe just a great desire... but I digress. At first I thought I would just make my friend Emily's most perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies, but then I realized that I had to have more chocolate, and wanted some oatmeal. So I changed the recipe and it was the perfect concoction, I swear these were the best cookies I have ever had, and Justin agreed.
