Complaining added ten pounds to my figure

Do NOT go for a long drive after you guzzle a bottle of water.

Things will spiral out of your control in a matter of moments.

You see, construction guys love to torture folks with full bladders.

I complained about my discomfort to my fellow traveler.

In other words, my husband.

I begged him to stop at the next rest area.

I complained about how inconvenient it is to stay hydrated while traveling.

I promised to buy him something if he found me a rest room.

I felt  better after we stopped at the rest room.

I ate six donuts and drank another bottle of water.

In hindsight, maybe the water wasn’t such a good idea.
