Busted.
Hi! Remember me? Brenda, who used to host Fitness Fridays? Yeah.
I just put a cake in the oven and poured myself a congratulatory glass of coke. The congratulations were for not getting a caffeine headache today after slipping up and drinking several REAL cokes this weekend. (This is Texas, by the way. When we say coke....we mean pop or soda. I actually had knock off Dr. Pepper if you really must know.) Anyway, I have been off of cokes for a little over a month I think, trying to only have caffeine free diet drinks when I really wanted one.
So I sat down with my coke, lifted the glass to my lips and began to drink, while my right hand clicked on an e-mail. Here is how it started:
Hi Brenda,
I was just looking back at a comment you made on my blog in December. I made a comment about giving up cola and you said you were too. I was just wondering how it was going for you.
Ha ha. Ha ha ha. I almost spit my coke out. Could the timing BE any more ironic?
Did I really say that? Folks, I'll be honest. I don't remember going off of cokes in December. Clearly, that was not a firm commitment on my part. I am so busted.
I am glad to report that I got up and poured the coke down the sink. So thank you Tammi Kay, for the kick in the butt.
Blogging is so good for you.
Good Girl!
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious. I can relate. I am hooked on pop too. I keep telling myself, "Man, I am craving WATER." I hope I can believe that one day.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for wasting that coke.... (gulp) that would be hard for me to do. I might have enjoyed it and said, "Next time I'll do better."
What kind of cake did you put in the oven?
ReplyDeleteChocolate???
No pressure, um, but, wouldn't this be a good time to start fitness friday again?? Like, don't we all wanna feel better BEFORE summer slaps in the face... I'm just sayin'... I would be on board (w/ my baggy sweatshirt)

HA! I love it!!
ReplyDeleteNo, Pineapple Upside Down Cake because fruit= healthy. Right?
ReplyDeleteSheri, indeed it would. I'll think on it. Maybe it can come back for a short time. At least until summer hits.
ReplyDeleteLOL! The Prince and I just decided not to buy 'Cokes' anymore either. And then we had a visitor from the States, and when sent out for ice the Prince came back with Pepsi.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Honey!
And fruit + dripping brown sugar sauce = probably three cokes. lol
I'm up for Fitness Fridays to make a comeback!
