six words x 2

I've decided to join the six word Saturday club, but as it is my first attempt, I get to do it twice. Okay, maybe it's not cool for me to make up any rules, so let's just say that, because I'm an enthusiastic beginner, I'm making it a two parter.

1) I must avoid the candy drawer.

2) I really really need to exercise.

I've been sick, okay? And our truck blew up, leaving us to share one vehicle, so, as a consequence, life has become less convenient than usual and I've just not been making it to the gym. And, to compound the problem, my benevolent junk food consuming husband bought a giant bag of those mini candy bars which is tantalizingly close by in the drawer of his bedside table (where he stashes all kinds of evil snacks) and it's easier to satiate my computer addiction hunger pangs by snagging a nearby Twix bar than by actually trudging down 3 flights of stairs to the kitchen and preparing myself some real food. To my credit, however, I've only been eating the Twix Bars and the Dark Milky Ways (damn those are good). The other four varieties kind of bore me.

I figure I'm also doing my fellow gym-goers a favor by staying off the communal gerbil machines until my cold is past the snifflley, sneezy stage.

But I sure feel like a slug.

Oh well.

  2. Twix are a weakness of mine. Fortunately, we never have them in the house (except maybe around Halloween). Instead I include a daily dose of dark chocolate in my diet (for health reasons, of course).

    Feeling like a slug is a normal part of being sick, I think. But if you don't feel better soon, maybe try upping your dose of dark chocolate. ;-)

  4. Oh boy. I can so totally ( I wish I could not) relate to your words.This must be what they mean by one form of divine intervention...I am sitting here eating dark chocolate covered cranberries. Farewell berries for now...I did go over my quota...
    Hope you are feeling a little better. Love your banner.
