Life has been a little complicated lately....and when I feel the bumps...I want coffee...really, it is my main vice. I have gotten into a good relationship with coffee.....one where I can drink it almost black, no sugar, just a little cream (one of my few concessions to dairy)...drinking coffee in a way that I do not feel badly about! But of course, you know, when I am feeling those bumps...that's not the kind of coffee I want....I want a sugary mocha or a vanilla latte.....or something iced and creamy and sweet...and totally bad for me! The things from my former relationship with coffee....but, haha, as they say...the past is always with us =P
Moving on from my relationship with coffee....let's talk about my clothes...hang with me, I promise, I have a point! I really think I am a size eight....but I have a couple of pairs of shorts and capris that are a....GASP...six:) Since I don't really remember the last time I was a size six, or an eight for that matter...this is very, very good for my ego! Oh, and they do fit.....I don't believe in forcing myself into small clothes...I believe in comfort....so they fit....comfortably!!! Or at least I thought they did........
I had a great night last night....catching up on stuff in preparation for a weekend away, and talking to a couple good friends that I needed to catch up with....but needless to say, I stayed up WAY too late! These days I turn in to a pumpkin by 9:30 or 10:00, as I am out the door by 6:30am to open summer camp at 7:00am. Usually I get up about 5:30 and make some effort to look alive. Not so today, I rolled out at 6:10 am.....brushed teeth, brushed hair, threw on those size six capris, a t-shirt, a little eyeliner, and out the door I went!
So let me paint this picture.....I am groggy, I want to be back in bed, and I start thinking about life's complications....and oh my!! I WANT COFFEE...WITH SUGAR. But I am so good, I don't stop at Starbucks, I don't get a McDonald's iced coffee....I make it all the way to Dunkin Donuts with every intention of getting an iced coffee with cream...BUT then I see it, the sign, for small Coolattas on sale for $1.99, and this picture of a coffee and vanilla bean Coolatta....and IT WAS ALL OVER! And I sucked that baby down, oh boy, did I suck it down. BTW....they really aren't even that great....soooo sweet, but in that moment! Oh....I was in happy coffee heaven:)
So as I am starting to work....and convincing myself it really wasn't so bad...that I somehow needed or deserved that hit of sugar and caffeine....especially seeing as I had no breakfast (let's not even talk about that) I realize my pants feel a little funny around the waist...so I look down...and yep, you got it friends.......THE BUTTON HAD POPPED RIGHT OFF!!!
So I LAUGHED...because when you are full of caffeine and sugar, and low on sleep, and when your hair is very special because you slept with it in a ponytail on top of your head and then went to work, and on top of all that....the button flies off the smallest size pants you have.....WHAT ELSE ARE YOU GOING TO DO????????
I don't know.....maybe try the Tropical Coolatta =P
