A Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich?

So, I am in Tupelo tonight. Home of the King… birthplace of the King…. should I capitalize that. Yeah… he was THE KING OF ROCK N’ ROLL!!! And I am pretty sure that he was the King purveyor of jelly-doughnuts!! So… it only seems reasonable that I am struggling with my diet in Tupelo. BTW- What is up with the word doughnuts… I mean, I always have to sick the spell checker on that one- I want to spell it DO-NUTS. Of course, you can see that vernacular on about every OTHER neon in Mississippi. Ah… the King. You know he died on the toilet… it’s true….. well, that’s what I heard.

O.K.- I am off point here… back to Tupelo. So, I have to be up here for work. I end up calling my sister, who is also here for work… different work, and she suggests that we go to the Taste of Tupelo Chamber of Commerce function. This is a COLOSSALLY bad idea. All I need is to STAND around in a room full of folks that I don’t know and be fed all I want from like 35 different restaurants.

But.. I guess it could be worse… It did give me fodder for the blog tonight.

The reason that this was such a bad idea is that, I don’t know what the deal is with this, but I can get off track- quick- when I am standing around eating. Not even to mention the fact that I can eat all I want. I need to just say no when I get asked to things like this. Kinda like Pizza Hut…. just can’t do it.

I guess it goes back to the deal about needing to eat slow and listening to my body tell me when I am full. For whatever reason, I can’t seem to do that as well when standing up… or in Tupelo for that matter.

Got to get back on track. Oh, BTW (By the way for you non-blogger types)- good article in the Clarion-Ledger today about diabetes and how to control it.
