Empty Calories

No kidding, folks. This conversation actually happened today at an On The Border:

Waitress: Hi! I'm Buffy, I'll be your waiter today. What can I get you to drink?

Me: What do you have that's sugar free?

Waitress: Uh, I don't think anything.

Me: Well, how about Diet Coke?

Waitress: We have Diet Coke, but I don't think it's sugar free. Want me to go ask?

Me: No, that's okay I shall spare you that potentially embarrassing conversation with the manager. What the heck, I'm on vaca. I'll splurge & have the Diet Coke. And, make it a double.

Next time, I'm ordering a margarita like a normal person should & not worrying about calories, butt fat & my pancreas. I'm also checking back with Buffy . . . in 20 years . . . after 2 kids . . . plus 30 lbs . . . my bet is that she'll know a thing or two about "diet".
