Had a doctor appointment
today for some stomach troubles I’ve been having. Evidently my heart hate was a bit high though
my blood pressure was a bit low. After unnecessarily
reproaching me for the amount of nicotine gum I consume (which of course I only
told her about the first box each week, not the second), the doc asked me about
how much water I drink. I must have responded
with some sort of a deer in the headlight look.
How much water did I drink today?
I didn’t really know how to answer that.
Well, I said, I brushed my teeth this morning so I’m sure I had some water
after that. She then asked what I’ve had
to drink all day. I told her I had a Diet
Pepsi and she said that didn’t count because of the caffeine. Then it occurred to me that I did in fact
have a glass of water the night before, which I proudly told her, but she
commented that I said that as if it were an unusual occurrence. Would someone choose to drink water? I choose to drink Pepsi One. I then found myself suddenly annoyed by
Charlie and all his water drinking ways.
He doesn’t even drink it cold, he drinks it room temperature straight
out of the tap. How very Buddhist of
him.
