(Conversation Guy and I had walking into Creegan’s Irish Pub at 3:00pm, post-doctor’s appointment.)
Guy: Of course, if I cut out sugar and alcohol my stomach will feel better.
Liz: But you don’t eat sugar at all. I don’t think this doctor knows what he’s talking about.
Guy: Yeah, I know!
(Pause.)
Guy: Well… I guess I did chase a cupcake with a slice of red-velvet cake with cream cheese icing last night.
