As I sat on the couch yesterday eating my pork rinds and Atkins clam dip (mmmm mmmm mmmm) Sweetie wanted to try. Fine. I share. No problem-o. UNTIL he ate half the bag!! I sweetly asked "Would you like some Fritos instead?" met with a cheery "No".
WHY, I ask you, is it that HE can eat ANYTHING he wants but seems to only want what I have? My snack choices are limited and he has Lays, Cheetos, Fritos and crackers in the kitchen to eat to his hearts content.
I kinda feel like a kid fighting over food, but C'MONNNNN!!!! I am deeply jealous of his superhuman metabolisim but when I see cherry danishes on top of the fridge, snickering and cat-calling me..... as I reach for carb-free pork rinds, I can't help but get a tad angry.Sigh... maybe it's petty, but help a sistah out, ya dig? Eat your flamin hot cheetos and let me have my skins! I didn't just buy all kinds of crap for you to enjoy just to eat MINE. Is it the selfish gene kicking into overdrive again?
He's at work tonight so I guess I can eat them ALONE while the Cheetos and Fritos sit and be jealous.
How about this....each time he reaches for those rinds you take a bag of his goodies and toss it. Buy two bags of rinds next time and NOT one of his. Hey, if he wants to eat your food fine, but there is no point of buying the bad stuff if he's not going to eat it, right?
That came from a dude, so it has the Male World Order seal of approval. Don't tell him though. I could get in trouble at the next meeting.
