the old acid reflux

A quick spring from the bed and a rush to the toilet.

Bo says, “Whoa, what’s that about? Is that a return of the old acid reflux?”

Yup. I was kind of hoping... that that was a thing of the past... and I didn’t have to worry about it anymore.

“You did have a coke last night. And a pizza.”

True, but that was my only coke of the day, and the pizza was that Paul Newman pepperoni, which is pretty tame as far as pizzas go.

“Well, that throw-uppy thing was real. So it has to be something.”

Maybe I should never have a coke for dinner. But that’s a hard restraint.

“Which is worse? Going without a coke in the evening or the acid reflux?”

The acid reflux, I guess. But I think we’ll just observe things for a while. Though, I think I will forget about having any pizza in the evening. Maybe that’s it, which wouldn’t be so bad.

“Suit yourself, Kemo Sabe!”

Thanks, Tonto.
