Can I Log a Burrito as a Workout?
And Other Lunchtime Contemplations
You know that feeling right after a good workout? You’re breathing hard. Your chest is still pounding. You feel oh so hot. And every gulp of water is relief.
Well, that’s how I feel right now. But I wasn’t out pounding the pavement, and the only thing I lifted was a burrito.
Only a burrito.
It sounds so benign. Alas, here I am feeling like I just ran a marathon.
So, How Did I Get Here?
Well, my partner decided to order burritos from this place down the street for lunch. We’ve had them more times than I can count, so I asked him to get me my usual.
As he’s placing the order, he says, “Do you want it spicy?”
The burrito’s are already pretty spiced up. But I think sure, why not.
Does it matter if I already think they’re spicy enough? Ehh.
Then my partner adds, “The option says ‘Beware’.”
“Fuck it, I’ll try it,” I say. I’m pretty good with spice.
