Confessions Of A Cheater

I need to come clean....but first I need to tell how frigggin' good it was. It was more than good it was mind blowing. But now, I have guilt...major guilt, so before it (the guilt) consumes me to the point of no return I need to spill my dirty deed.

I cheated on my husband today....not with an other man, but by drinking a very cold and might I add refreshing cola. Go ahead and laugh, I know you want too. DW and I decided to give up pop last week. Instead we've been drinking water with lemon...to give that bland clear stuff a bit of flavour. He has moaned and groaned through the process but has done amazingly well. I, on the other hand, thought I was doing well until today. Did I tell you I am a Pepsi lover. Maybe addict would be a better description.




At work today, the residents were involved in an activity called "Lunch Bunch". This is when they can sign up and order food from said restaurant of the month. Today was Dirty Bird. (KFC) Because I helped serve the special lunch they gave me a meal as well. Included in that meal was a cola. I stared it down. I swore to myself that I was not going to drink it. As I sat down to eat the chicken that had been saved for me, I poured myself a large glass of ice water.

First bite went down with the water no problem and so did the second. As I put my glass back on the table I touched the cold can of cola. Condensation dripping down the the aluminum. I can do this I thought. And I did. I did not open that can ..... until I started the second piece of chicken. It tasted so good. The fizz hitting the tip of my nose as I drank. Really... who in their right mind would just drink water with that greasy stuff. It just can not be done. I would have drank a whole two liter bottle if I had the chance.

Now I need to decide if I should tell DW or not. Maybe my confession here is good enough. But then, I am not being completely honest with him, 'cause let me tell you, he thinks that I am suffering right along side of him.

To tell or not to tell that is the question. I'm gonna have to ponder this one for a while. (As I savour the remainder of the pop on my taste buds)
