Fight over pizza!
One of the best things, or worse, about my job is there is always food around here....I mean good food, dessert, candy, popcorn...you name it and we've had it. Today, Lou Malnatti's delivered pizza here for some charity event it is hosting with the Chicago Bears' wives tonight and, my Lord, was that pizza scrumptious looking. So much so, that I had to have a slice. Well, by the time I got to the conrference room, where the pizza was, there were two slices left. My camera guy asked me to bring him a slice and then that left just one for....guess who.....ME! That's when the fight ensued.....
Robin was starving and looked over at my pizza and started in on me. She called me selfish. She said I was only looking out for myself. She even threw a ball of paper at me. I was shocked. That mild mannered anchor woman of ours is one raging bull when she gets hungry. Somebody, please feed that woman. I guess I can understand. Four hours is a long time to sit up there without being able to leave to go pee or getting something to eat. I feel bad now, I didn't even offer her a bite. Shame on me! I guess I am a selfish little something!!!!!!!(that's not what she called me though :-) Well, the ending gets better. We kissed and made up after the show when I brought her over a dozen donuts. She's my friend again. While half this story is true, it sure was fun writing it and it is was even more fun eating that delicious slice of pizza. Man, it was good. I really shouldn't have even had it to begin with because I am on Weight Watchers and the one slice had too many points for me to be taking in at one sitting. By the way, I've been on WW for 3 and 1/2 weeks and am down 7.2 pounds. Yeah Baby!!!!!!!!!!! I am so proud of me. You have no idea how hard it is to walk down these hallways, or in and out of the newsroom when there are good treats lying around all the time. You really have to have some will power otherwise you will be 300lbs. Oh well, the good news is I still have a few points left for the day and Robin and I are going out for fat free yogurt in about an hour :-) Have a good one! Val
