Never Again!

Never again will I eat a 1/2 pound box of the hot tamale candies over the course of two days! Last Friday Lexie, Jenny, and I rented the movie "Saved". (Lexie and I had already seen it but we really liked it so we were up for seeing it again) While at Blockbuster I decided I wanted some candy and got some Hot Tamales b/c I hadn't had them in years and they were calling my name.... "Christina! EAT US! Lets have a Fiesta!" So anway we are watching Saved and I'm chowing down on my hot tamales and some pizza with lots of spices. IF only I knew what those Hot Tamales had planned for me.....

So now it's Saturday and I had to work that night, so I just sat on my ass all afternoon eating the rest of my hot tamales. I can eat about 10 at a time before I have to take a lil break, but I'm a trooper so I kept eating. By now the box is about 2/3 of the way gone......about 9 or so got spilled at Jenny's but I've eaten every other one. The rest of my Saturday went like this.... Go to work. Come home. Eat hot tamales. Go to bed.

Sunday-- Get up for work. Work. About 6 hours into my shift my mouth is starting to feel really weird......it hurts and is F-ing w/my ear, nose and throat! "I'm like what the biff is going on here!?" I think about it for a few and then realize it's the damn tamales. I should have realized this would happen... I can only chew a piece of cinnamon gum for like 5.8 seconds before it starts to irrate my mouth. Anyway, I get home and my sister and I decided to go get some mexican food! I say Bring on the spiceyness! I can handle it....Turns out I couldn't! I messed up my mouth real bad!

Monday...It's a good thing all I had to do that day was read b/c it hurt to talk. The hot Tamales had F-ed w/my mouth big time! Sorry for all the complaining I did that day...

Anyway, here I am a week later and my mouth is still recovering. It's basically better but I've definitely learned my lesson. It's not wise to eat a 1/2 pound box of hot tamales (six servings according to the box which Alexa read) in the course of 24 hours. It's also not a good idea to go pig out on chips and salsa when you have a mouth that's already irrated from hot things. I think I remember now why I hadn't had hot tamales in years... It's time for another 3-5 year break.

"Boys! Sometimes a girl just needs one"

Sing it Brit! I need a boy real bad. I want a guy to take me out on dates... I want a guy to make out with (the doorway just isn't cutting it anymore {only like 2 people at most will even understand that comment, but it will be funny to them!})... I want to be wooed! I haven't been on a date since like early last fall! WTF? I. AM. GREAT. Boys should be lining up to ask me out!! Wow, that sounds pretty full of myself, but hey it is the gosh dang truth! It's sad, I haven't even met any new guys in a LONG time to even form any real crushes on. I do however have my work crush. We all have that one customer, or in some cases there's some of us (ahem, Alexa) who have like 15.798998 customer crushes. Since my work crush is a crush from afar nothing will ever happen....sigh! I get all flustered and girly in front of him and feel like I'm making an idiot out of myself, but it's kinda fun. I guess I have another crush that I've had for over a year now, but he lives far far away...booo. So maybe another positive thing about moving is a whole new city of guys! I feel like I've met every guy there is to meet here...well not really, but still. Anyway, I'm gonna go listen to some Britney Spears!

PEACE

My ultimate fantasy was realized the other day...

The other day I am thinking to myself "I want a diet coke". For those of you who don't know I love me some DC. Anyway, I have my window wide open and happen to glance out it while I am picking some money off the floor. What do I see...? A .COKE. TRUCK! What am I wearing? My awesome coca cola shirt! So i go down the stairs to the coke machine and there rolling in a whole bunch of coke products is the DIET COKE MAN! Remember the diet coke commercial from the mid/late 90's where all the office women got all googly-eyed when the hot diet coke guy made the deliveries? well... IT WAS THAT GUY! So he says "hey" to me in a real sexy way and then says that my coke t-shirt is pretty hot. He throws down his dolly of Coke bottles, picks me up and we drove off in the coke truck into the sunset! HA no actually that did not happen. That's what I was hoping for as i walked down the stairs and saw a heavy set guy instead......I was shocked back to reality real quick. Coca Cola rules!
