Sometimes It Is Nice To Have Something To Hold Over Someone's Head

Today I was attacking emails and phone calls with a vengeance when I was overwhelmed with the desire for a Coke Zero. I would say need, but that isn't true.

It was desire. Pure and simple desire. From the top of my head to the tips of my toes.

I called my daughter and asked if she and her significant other could bring one home for me. There was no time for me to go get one on my own. She readily agreed to bring me one.

When they walked in Micah tried to make me feel bad about wanting the Coke Zero and was not letting me have it. All it took to get him to hand it over was one simple sentence.

"Do you ever want to go on another date with my daughter?"

The Coke Zero was mine!
