bullshit
While I walked my dog this am I thought I'd call a girlfriend back east, I
asked if she read my previous entry on the dieting and she had... I
told her I added chocolate to the diet to get me through and she reminded me of a diet I
did once while bartending in Chicago that consisted of coca cola and peanut
m&ms... I certainly did lose weight from that diet too! (Note: I have
this far lost 4 pounds on this rice, pineapple & chocolate diet-yay me!!!) She then proceeds to
tell me she's beginning to "fast" tomorrow. Translation: starvation.

I'm not judging, we've all done it. What makes me giggle is
her clever choice in words: "fast". You see, this friend of mine is a very
successful entrepreneur and can conduct a serious board room meeting with the
best of'm in 5 inch heels, hungover, coffee in hand whilst "fasting", in
last nights' clubbing outfit with a splash of Chanel No.5, walk in
having everyone in there buy and eat. up. every. word. she's. spoken.
The girls got talent. It's unsurpassed and I've never met anyone like
her in my life. She's a true gem for sure.

Fasting, classically, is known as a sacred ritual, in which you give
up eating for god and/or some sort of organized religion... starvation,
on the other hand, is giving up food in which you care to worship your
body. As a temple. And an empty one at that, to get or appear to be
thinner.

Her artfully chosen word, has made me rethink why I
gave up bullshitting. We all know what you're really up to... but the
grace in word play...there's something to be said for those who play well with words.
Amen.
