Torture.

March 26th, 2008 at 03:19 pm

I don’t know why I do it, but when I know that something is going to screw with me, I do it anyway. What do I mean?

I’m slightly lactose intolerant. I can have dairy, but I can’t have too much of it. However, at one point, I would drink milk, and have ice cream later on. Torture.

I’m allergic to most conventional fruits. What does this mean? Apples, oranges, bananas, pears, grapes, plums…etc? Can’t eat them. In fact, strawberries are the only thing that do not give me a reaction. However, I used to eat mangoes like no tomorrow. Torture.

I think that most diet sodas taste like dishwashing liquid. However, some actually taste normal, so I’ll drink one. One small problem. Most diet sodas have aspartame in it. It’s established that too much of the stuff can kill you, but I have immediate effects–I’m nauseous, I have a headache, and my energy level drops immediately and markedly. Once, after drinking Fresca, I was short of breath, another side effect of aspartame ingestion. Can you imagine if I had it every day? Can’t do that one again. But yeah, yesterday I had diet cream soda. It tastes good, but I felt like shit after that. Torture.

It’s like I do shit that I know will fuck me up, but I can’t resist it. What am I? Nuts? Or just a pain in the ass? Or do I have a high tolerance for unnecessary and avoidable torture?

Hoi Thar.

Crestfallen is the 3.5-year-old site of a sarcastic 20-something natural-born New Yorker/California implant who goes by the name Nat Marie most days, but answers to many other things, including Shadow, Chickenhead, and "Hey Bitch!". She has a love for writing, performing arts, and cats (albeit allergic to them). You will find love, life, and a lot of writing and sarcasm sprinkled in. Enjoy.
