Gangbanged

The Gang - "R U Lookin' at me, punk?!"

It was lunchtime. As much as I enjoy eating out with the rest of the I.T. crowd, the bad food takes it's toll. I've spent the last 6 months mostly eating homemade lunches made by Mrs LoTC to the tune of healthy schtuff! So as usual, I headed to the lunchroom where I store my food in the fridge. It's not a long walk, but on the way I came across a bad looking crowd. This is the route I normally take, I thought nothing of it but as I approached I could see they were trying to make eye contact and get my attention. I just looked straight ahead and walked right by them trying to ignore them. I grabbed my lunch and made my way back to my office but now they had my attention. I inadvertantly looked over and then I could hear one of them shout something my way. I looked away quickly, trying to look in the opposite direction as if I didn't hear what they had to say. I picked up the pace and got back to my office. As I sat down at my desk I could tell something wasn't right. I felt like that gang lost interest in me, but I may have been wrong.

Looking down at my mission ahead, I could tell something didn't fit right.

1) Healthy Homemade Whole Wheat Bannana Muffin

2) Healthy Homemade Granola bar from all natural peanut butter and cranberries
3) Apple
4) Freshly cut fruit salad mix with grapes, melon, cantelope, pineapple
5) Suspicious looking unhealthy crowd



One of these things is not like the other thing



I knew it. Some of the gangbangers I passed earlier had followed me back to my desk. The 7 of them stood there staring at me, waiting for me to make my move. I reached for the muffin but they jumped me! I tried to fight them off, but Oreo #1 and Oreo #2 grabbed my wrists and pinned them behind my back. Orero #3 tied my shoe laces together so I couldn't run. Then the Fudgeo group came in. Ruthless bunch I say. One pinched my nose, while the other forced my mouth open just enough for Fudgeo #3 to hop in my mouth. Oreo #4 forced my jaw to move in an up and down motion and I had no choice but to swallow the fudgeo that was in my mouth. At that point in time I was livid! I tried so hard to eat healthy and now my diet has been marred by this evil-doers! My hands broke free and I grabbed the lot of them. I shoved them all in my mouth and chomped down, severing there heads from there bodies. It was pure carnage, the sight of fudge-oreo combination getting stuck between my teeth - this will surely require ample brushing after lunch. I may have to throw that toothbrush out after use. I showed that gang who's boss, I ate them all!

And now I hear that Mrs. LoTC is ordering pizza for dinner tonight. There is no way I could ever say no to pizza. I think today is a complete write-off as far as nutrition is concerned. On the bright side, I did finish the rest of the healthy lunch. I may have overdone the calorie intake though. Oh well, it's day #1 of my rest week sooooo that's OK right? Tonight is supposed to be an easy recovery swim. Maybe I'll put a few extra lengths in to relinquish some of my guilt, because theres no way enough extra lengths can be done to offset the damage I just did.

I hope that gang isn't waiting for me again tomorrow. I don't like getting bullied.
