Craving


Just a moment ago I felt the great need to devour a piece of creamy, delicious chocolate and absant-mindedly expressed this desire to my husband, who wisely (and curtly) responded like so: "But we just had dinner. If you're still hungry, have an apple or something." Oh Ken, you just don't understand. One does not eat chocolate because one is hungry. Being hungry has nothing to do with it, unless, of course he meant "hungry" as in desirous as opposed to a condition resulting from a lack of food. I strongly infer that based on his usage of the word, Ken meant the latter. I apologize - I digress. The point is, sometimes a gal just needs a palatable pick-me-up and chocolate is a prime candidate for pick-me-up-ness. I think someone needs to explain what a "craving" is to this husband of mine and then remind him of his obligation -nay duty - to indulge my cravings (at least every once in a while), given my "delicate" state. Eat an apple! I scoff at the very idea.

Sleeping Beauty

I just have to say that there is nothing worse than being forced to breath through your mouth while sleeping at night to accomodate that nasty reoccurrence: the stuffy nose. I certainly did not wake up feeling refreshed, unless "refreshed" feels like a residued mouth and hairy teeth. Moreover, discovering a few saliva stains on the pillow was just the icing on the cake. Take a hike congestion - I need my beauty rest because no straight thinking person would ever kiss this morning glory.
