What I Should Have Said

Back in the '90s, there was an episode of "Saved By The Bell" that featured "What I Should Have Said" theater. For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, here's a little background...  The guys said some stupid things that upset the girls. So, in an attempt to apologize, they staged a "What I Should Have Said" theater and they re-did the scene the way the girls wanted it.

Well, today I'd like to present my version of "What I Should Have Said". Yesterday was our anniversary.  When asked where I wanted to go for dinner, I said "Let's get Mexican!"  What I should have said was, "Let's go somewhere where I can make a healthy choice."

When placing my order at the restaurant, I ordered a Chicken Enchilada.  What I should have said was, "I'll have an Enchilada, minus the extra cheese."

When ordering my drink, I asked for a Pina Colada.  What I should have said was, "I'll stick with water."

When we finished dinner early and had some time to kill before our next adventure,  I said "Let's go to Cold Stone Creamery and get some ice cream." What I should have said was, "Maybe if we get to our next destination early, they can squeeze us in."

Clearly, I could have made some much better choices yesterday.  However, I'm not going to dwell on it.  It's one day and I'm over it.  Time to hit the gym and work off that Pina Colada and extra cheese!
